Taiwan Talks

Күн бұрын

According to a recent report by the Financial Times, Chinese President Xi Jinping claimed in a meeting with the European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen that the U.S. is attempting to provoke a Taiwan invasion. U.S. officials have refuted this statement, saying that U.S. policy on China remains unchanged. In this episode of “Taiwan Talks,” we discuss China’s red lines on Taiwan and efforts toward an alternative world order, as well as U.S. reactions to growing Chinese influence. Furthermore, we examine semiconductor policies in both countries and whether U.S. elections may affect the U.S.-China chip war.
Our guests are:

- National Chengchi University Professor of Political Science, Taiwan-U.S. Relations Expert

@@matthewyee407 you can Google the answer why it's called South China Sea. My guess is the Europeans named it when they found a passage to China by sea, this was the body of water that they needed to traverse to get to China. It's just a name, it has nothing to do with ownership. Even the name China is an European invention. Nobody in China refers to their own country as China unless they're speaking English.

There was a time when the US was economically, militarily and socially, extremely strong and could project and maintain its hegemony over all others, especially when they were all suffering from the devastation of WW2. Today, amongst others, Russia & China have recovered and become strong economically, militarily and socially, while the US has lost its strengths, to a point where it is no longer admired nor feared and can no longer maintain its dominance. The US can only try its best to slow down its own decline and even get some of its vessels to share in its burden, while at the same time, try to contain the rise of both Russia and China, using whatever means available, both ethical and unethical..

These experts are much better and factual than most in the West and Taiwan. But even they missed the real point: CCP/PRC has 3 red lines 1) Taiwan independence Formally Or Too Obvious like Joining UN. 2) Foreign Military in Taiwan. Selling weapons and training are in gray-zone. 3) Taiwan becomes uncontrollably chaos like Hong Kong. The 1 and 2 are getting more likely so PLA is Preparing the WAR. But CCP's number 1 priority is beating US in technology, manufacturing, economic and diplomatic areas. So Xi would not move on Taiwan unless 1) Taiwan moves to independence, 2) US moves to Taiwan like Ukraine joining NATO, 3) PRC passes US as Number One Power.

They do not understand the modern network effect. In free market, the new comer has extremely tough time to pass the old one because they do not have the same credibility, quality and cost level. So if US did not sanction China's semiconductor industry, China may never able to pass US lead. But now under US sanction, Chinese new comers have the huge Chinese Market for itself. So it is just a matter of time for China to catch up because it enjoys the scale of huge market. Huawei's new operation software is a typical example.

Taiwan used to be part of Japan. Taiwan was separated from Japan on April 28, 1952, when the San Francisco Peace Treaty of September 8, 1951 entered into force. In this international treaty, Japan ceded Taiwan to no other power. However, Taiwan is currently not independent because the inhabitants of Taiwan never declared independence. Consequently, Taiwan currently does not belong to any other power and Taiwan is not independent yet. In the interim, a "governing authority ON Taiwan" whose board is elected by the inhabitants implements administration of the territory. Taipei is the seat of the "governing authority ON Taiwan”. The January 1, 1979 "Taiwan Relations Act" adopts the terminology "governing authority ON Taiwan" instead of "governing authority OF Taiwan". According to that US law, the inhabitants of Taiwan are "the people ON Taiwan" (在台人民) instead of "the people OF Taiwan" (台灣人民). China has legal ground to take over renegade Chinese Kinmen & Mazu Territory (renegade Chinese KMT). China has no legal claim to former Japanese Taiwan & Penghu. China does not enjoy the sovereignty of former Japanese Taiwan & Penghu, neither does the "governing authority ON Taiwan". While "governing authority ON Taiwan" deems itself Chinese, the TRA regards the inhabitants under its jurisdiction as "the people ON Taiwan" (在台人民) instead of "the people OF Taiwan" (台灣人民). All "Refuse Of China" (ROC) passport-holders are "the people ON Taiwan" (在台人民) instead of "the people OF Taiwan" (台灣人民). The Chinese on both shores of the strait have this mania of ignoring international law to better shield their preposterous claim from the uncomfortable truth. They both ignore the April 17, 1895 Treaty of Shimonoseki that cancels any future Chinese claim to Taiwan. And they ignore the September 8, 1951 San Francisco Peace Treaty that did not cede Japanese Taiwan to China. SFPT signatory powers enjoy with the Chinese already ON Taiwan equal right to occupy former Japanese Taiwan. SFPT signatory powers should take the lead in laying down the law and drawing their clear collective red line so that China can no longer misconstrue each partner country’s “one China policy” as slavish rehash of its own preposterous ’one China principle”.
