Army Of Taiwan
According to Chinese newspaper "huanqiu shibao" (Global Times), after the provocative visit of the speaker of the house of representatives, Nancy Pelosi Taiwan tensions across the Strait continues to grow. Amid a series of countermeasures and comprehensive effort in response to US provocations of the Chinese authorities has produced a booklet "the Taiwan question and reunification of China in the new era", reinforcing the strong position of the country on the issue of Taiwan.
While American politicians continued provocative trip to the island of Taiwan, which further increased tensions in the area of the Strait, the former Chairman of the Kuomintang hung Hsiu-Chu stated that Taiwan may become abandoned chess piece, which can leave (change) at any time.
According to hung Hsiu-Chu, Taiwan's ruling Pro-American Democratic progressive party as its blind adherence to the orders from Washington ignores the welfare and safety of the inhabitants of the island, allowing you to use Taiwan the U.S. lawmakers and officials as a platform for a political show in their own political interests. The situation has gone so far as may be from any sparks go into a military phase, said hung.
Moreover, with the growth of competitive relations between China and the United States, Taiwan will continue to be at the forefront of the geopolitical struggle, and can become a bargaining chip for the United States.
Tabloid "huanqiu shibao" notes that many people in Taiwan have not realized the seriousness of the crisis and believe that the island receives foreign aid from the United States and Japan. While many politicians campaigning for the independence of Taiwan, is ready to leave the island at the first threat.
Former KMT Chairman stressed that she was always standing on the position of the peaceful reunification of Taiwan with China. Since then, however, as the Democratic progressive party, led by Tsai Inveni came to power in 2016, contacts with China began to decline, which led to the growth of confrontation and hostility.
Hung believes that in the case of a military conflict over Taiwan, the United States would not directly intervene in it. Confirm the reluctance of the USA to participate in a military conflict in the Taiwan Strait is the recent Chinese exercises, when American warships have become much less active near the island than usual.
