(Original title: Trump calls for the cessation of military aid to Taiwan? military expert: I am afraid of it sooner or later)

According to the Washington Post, U.S. President Trump will either suspend a more than $400 million military aid to Taiwan.Taiwan "Chinese Strategic Advance Association" researchers have revealed that the Trump team originally did not support free military aid, especially other officials in Taiwan have money but are not willing to invest in military spending, so military aid should be reviewed sooner or later.

The Trump speech.

The Washington Post that Trump suspended a more than $400 million military aid to Taiwan to facilitate a trade deal with mainland China, raising external concerns about whether it meant a shift in U.S. policy.

He argued that Trump himself and his team did not support free military aid from the campaign, and now gradually master the foreign defense department, there will be a review. For example, the former Biden government provided military aid to Ukraine, now becomes NATO countries to buy money to the U.S. to Ukraine. He pointed out that if even NATO and Ukraine were so, even in the eyes of the Trump team, it would have been a lot of money, but would not be willing to significantly increase defense investment in Taiwan.

He stressed that even if there are no factors in the trade negotiations between the US and China, U.S. military aid to Taiwan should be reviewed sooner or later, which is entirely in the decision-making power of the U.S. side.

From the perspective of Trump's transactional personality, the possibility of limited military exchanges in the future cannot be completely ruled out.

Jie Zhong said that the United States may not stop arms sales, but it may limit the quality to some extent. Anyway, it is impossible for the United States to sell F-35 to Taiwan Province now. At best, it is an asymmetric weapon system. But in order to sell more ammunition, the most likely thing for the Trump administration is to set quality limits.

Starting on September 12th, the so-called "Taiwan status is not defined" in China, the two sides of the Taiwan Sea and the Pacific Ocean have had the most rivalry.

This is more significant than before.

The process is generally as follows:

On September 12, the American Association in Taiwan, in response to media inquiries, stated that China deliberately distorted documents from the Second World War, including the Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Declaration and the San Francisco Peace Agreement, which did not determine Taiwan's final political status.

On September 15, China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said in response to a Reuters reporter's question: "The Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Announcement, and the Japanese Surrender Paper are clearly confirming China's sovereignty over Taiwan.The so-called San Francisco Peace Agreement is an illegal and ineffective document issued by the United States after the Second World War, in the case of the exclusion of the People's Republic of China and the Soviet Union, against Japan alone.

On September 15 (Beijing time September 16), a US State Department spokesman told The Voice of America that the statement of the American Association in Taiwan was a "accurate translation" of the US government's position.

The spokesman¡¯s remarks are mainly three-faceted: first, false legal narratives are part of Beijing¡¯s broader action to isolate Taiwan from the international community and limit other countries¡¯ sovereign choices in interaction with Taiwan; second, the United States will firmly support peace and stability across the Strait and oppose any unilateral attempt to change the status quo, through force or coercion; third, the United States will continue to adhere to the ¡°one China¡± policy guided by the ¡°Taiwan Relations Act¡±, the three joint communiqués of China and the ¡°six guarantees¡± of the United States to Taiwan.

In Taiwan, green camp chicken dances, excitement is unknown. Xi Jinping, secretary general of the People's Party of Taiwan, said that the "Joint Defense Treaty" signed by the Taiwan National Party authorities and the United States in 1954 is the concept of a military alliance and has nothing to do with territorial sovereignty. Taiwan's largest newspaper, the "Freedom Times", published a special comment on September 17, saying that "uncertainty and uncertainty make Taiwan a floating island. Today, geographical change has winded up, 23.3 million people must set their own direction, show Taiwan's national will.

China Times published on September 16th an article entitled "AIT advocates Taiwan's status as undetermined, do not misjudge", believing that "from the real international political perspective, to curtail Taiwan's status as undetermined has been difficult to cause international community response, in the official documents of the United Nations, Taiwan's name is "China Taiwan Province" or "China Taiwan", the United Nations Secretariat showed that any change or change must be decided by the member states. and the United Nations only 11 member states have formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan, 119 countries endorse China's "one-China principle", Taiwan is an inseparable part of China, of which there are 89 countries support China to the national unification goal, these are " Taiwan's status as undetermined" or "Taiwan independence" cannot be

In the opinion of the author, it makes no sense to investigate the status of so-called Taiwan from a legal point of view.The U.S. denies World War II documents, which is equivalent to denying the outcomes of World War II, and also denies the U.S. historical position in World War II.

So why did the U.S. do this, especially at this special time when the Chinese and U.S. leaders are scheduling a meeting?

The author believes that this is a preventive strategic arrangement made hastily by the United States.

The U.S. side prevents that once China has pushed for the reunification of the two sides by harsh means, the U.S. side can launch a series of countermeasures from the perspective of "Taiwan's position is undefined".

Taiwan's "Vision Foundation" is an institution that has already been included in the punishment list by Taiwan. On September 6, the executive chairman of the agency, Riyang, openly said that Taiwan should consider designing a "war-time intimidation" mechanism, convincing countries that if the mainland moves against Taiwan, that is, recognizes Taiwan's independence, the mainland will not dare to do so.

On September 6th, Lai Yizhong put forward the idea of "wartime deterrence", and on September 12th, the American Association in Taiwan repeated the old tune of Taiwan Province's undetermined status.

This happened after the Great Military Parade in China on September 3.

This explains that China's large parade of troops, allowing the "Taiwan independence" forces on the island and the U.S. side to have a sense of urgency, preventative strategic arrangements have been introduced.

The question is, does this arrangement work?
