Lai Qingde, Vice President of Taiwan and the President of the DPP, just ended the visit to the United States on August 18th. The Eastern theater of the PLA of China launched a joint sea and air training around Taiwan Island on the 19th (Saturday).The Ministry of National Defense of Taiwan said that from 9 o'clock that day, the PLA Air Police 500, Yun 9, J-11, J-16, Su-30, and 9 and other military aircraft, totaling 42 out-of-sea activities, 26 of which overwhelmed the number of overwhelming survlesThe so -called Taiwan Strait midline and extension line; there are also eight PLA warships cooperated with the joint warup police patrol.
Nancy Pelosi, the US Speaker of the United States, visited Taiwan in August last year, and Taiwan Cai Yingwen's transit the United States in April this year triggered two large -scale military exercises of the PLA.It's not as good as time before, because Lai Qingde's influence is far less influenced as Perosi and Tsai Ing -wen.Moreover, Lai Qingde has not seen the United States this time that he has seen the United States heavyweight politicians. It can be explained by the mainland's "solemn warning". There is no need to move.
But the mainland did not stop at verbal warning, but responded with heavy soldiers.This shows that the mainland is very vigilant about Lai Qingde, a "Taiwan independence worker" as the next Taiwan leader, and also shows that the military exercise of Taiwan has become a compulsory course for the People's Liberation Army, and the mainland to deal with the deterioration of the situation in the Taiwan Strait.
On August 19th, the mainland military disclosed the details and pictures of the training. Many navy destroyers, frigates, missile speedboats, theater aircraft fighters, early warning machines, interference machine formations, Rocket Army's frequent fire power unit, etc.Taste force, fast maneuverability, assembly, and combat deployment; under the support of multi -source intelligence information, various combat platforms are arranged according to the task, system attack and collaborative operations.During the time, the pressure of the island is shaped.Drived ships take advantage of high -speed maneuverability and hidden rivals to occupy a favorable array.In the missile speedboat of the mission waters, the coastal command assault group and electronics confrontation, observing communication forces, and implementing full -time pursuit of enemy mobile targets.The air -to -air combat marshals have made every effort to seize the air control, and coordinate the surface ships to attack the enemy investigation and patroller combat platform, and so on.
The training screen also shows that the long-range bomber-6K also mounted the Eagle-12 anti-ship missile to participate in the training.The eagle-12 anti-ship missile has a range of more than 500 kilometers, with a maximum speed of more than three times the speed, which can pose a major threat to the United States' Aegis destroyer and the aircraft carrier combat group.The PLA took out such a weapon combination, and the goal was obviously not just several old ships in Taiwan.
Song Zhongping analyzed by military commentators, the PLA has become larger and more frequent in the process of the "Taiwan independence" forces and the exercise of out -of -domain forces.powerful.The current training of the PLA is completely prepared for the military struggle made by some countries led by the United States to involve the Taiwan Strait crisis.
He believes that the "Taiwan independence" preparations and out -of -domains such as the United States have increased the intensity and means of intervention in the Taiwan Strait.Therefore, a large number of military exercises are carried out every year. It seems that the subjects are similar, and in fact they are constantly improving the combat capabilities to deal with strong enemies.If the situation will change sharply in the future, the PLA's combat plan will be transformed into actual combat operations.
For the military situation of the Taiwan Strait, Song Zhongping believes that some countries such as the United States and other regions are powerful and helpless, because they are worried that the territory of the country will become a battlefield, so it can only be indifferent to the military exercise of the PLA.Methods to handle.However, the United States does be preparing for military struggle in the Taiwan Strait area. Regardless of whether the United States will cooperate to prevent Taiwan in the future, the PLA must plan according to the worst situation, that is, it is prepared to make a good preparation for the United States' involvement in the Taiwan Strait's military conflict.
The various departments of Taiwan have strongly condemned and protesting the training of mainland surrounding Taiwan. In addition to criticizing Beijing to try to influence the upcoming Taiwan elections, it also pointed out that the PLA's actions proved that the mainland was a troublemaker.Presidential Palace spokesman Lin Yan Chan said that Taiwan ’s President and Vice President have visited the United States for years, and should not be an excuse for the mainland.The international community has repeatedly reiterated the importance of maintaining peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait. However, Beijing still increases its military threats to destroy regional stability, and it will be more difficult to get the trust of the international community.
However, although the mainland has rewanged the force to prevent "Taiwan independence", many mainland netizens often shouting the slogan of "Wu Tong" in Taiwan, but less than a last resort, the high -level mainland will not choose "Wu Tong" Taiwan.After all, the cost of "martial arts" is too large, not just paying casualties, but also to face unpredictable international and domestic costs after winning Taiwan.
It can be said that unless the "Taiwan independence" and the establishment of official relationships such as the "Taiwan independence" and the establishment of official relations in the United States, the mainland will not be able to become a reality in the future.
But this does not mean that the mainland is helpless except for martial arts.In view of the close cross -strait economic and trade relations, especially Taiwan ’s huge trade surplus on the mainland, the mainland can also put a lot of pressure on Taiwan by using economic and trade methods.
The Taiwan Affairs Office of the Mainland China said on August 18 that the Ministry of Commerce supports the discount of tariffs to Taiwan products under the suspension of the ECFA (Cross -Strait Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement) item.If this move, Taiwan's export trade will be re -created, and cross -strait relations will continue to deteriorate.
With the exacerbation of the Sino -US game and the Taiwan election, it is difficult to see the hope of improvement in cross -strait relations in the short term.In any case, all parties should not be fully controlled by the Taiwan Strait situation, which does not meet the interests of any party.
