The fallout unfolds from U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan on August 2. In response, the Chinese Foreign Ministry announced countermeasures including cancellation and suspension of talks and cooperation with the U.S. Meanwhile, the Eastern Theater Command of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army forged ahead with joint combat exercises and training over the weekend in the waters and airspace around Taiwan Island. How do people in Taiwan take these events? CGTN’s Tian Wei asked Joanna Lei, a former legislator in Taiwan’s Kuomintang Party.

Politics at the expense of country's benefits …
The opinion of a failed politician from a corrupt, mainland military family on a CCP propaganda mouthpiece like CGTN most certainly does not constitute a view from Taipei.
I wish for no war over Taiwan but who knows
The roots cause of the issue are the NGO lead by NED based in Taipei. This are the snake head that needs to be chop off. When this is done. Provocation will eventually die off.
US led Supremist Colonists view Majority erst of Humans as LIVESTOCK for them to Manage, and Taiwan is No Different. Noriega was US ASSET in Panama, Sadam Hussein was DARLING of US, Moammar Quaddafi gave Millions for Sarkosy re-election, Robert Mugabe was Knighted by Britain, then De-Knighted for Thinking like an African. ALL Supremist Colonists abide by same RACIST playbook of USE ABUSE & DISCARD because they see OTHERS as Less-Human and thus Fair-Game.
Even if the US does not aid Taiwan militarily, there still remains two hurdles for the Chinese mainland. The first is financial as the result of the dominance of the USD. The other is potential losses of trade with the West.
While the dominance of the USD will be eroded or vitiated eventually, the time frame is less certain. China will wait until its trade with the global South has become the great majority. I believe it will be no less than 20 years until trade with the West has dwindled enough.
A small fortress, if that narrow water is important for world trade, catch 22 for the US, that is coming to a head. The US admit Taiwan belong to China, I see it as a family problem, like the civil war in America. Like Taiwan having a affair with America, Taiwan fell in love, the passion, and Chinas obsession with Taiwan,. While China and Taiwan was separated, Taiwan cheated, maybe leading up to some kind of fatal attraction. China is saying, baby come back, I don't want to have to come and get you, just like John Wayne said, as America, over my cold, cold body.
The US is still just one member at the UN. Taiwan will never obtain the 2/3s vote needed to be a member. Any change in the US version of one-China should be considered with this reality.
Even if the US increases arms sale or lease to Taiwan, whether Taiwan will have the courage to use them will be central. I believe as long as a war has not started, Taiwan will have no courage to use them as the psychological hurdle will be too high. The key will be whether the US will have the wherewithal or recklessness to station enough troops in Taiwan. The answer I believe is no.
So don't believe that Beijing must react to any legislative provocation from the USA.
Exactly.
What is the benefit to Taiwan if the US state continues to escalate conflict by trying to lawfare itself over other countries? I don't get the language of "coming to our aid". The idea of the US state coming to the aid of Taiwan against China does not make any sense does it? How does that make sense?
I don't know if this question makes sense, but why doesn't China deal with the separatists and meddlers? If Taiwan is China, the idea of a blockade does not make sense. You are essentially blockading yourself right? I don't get why everybody agrees that there is one China yet China feels compelled to demonstrate military prowess and demonstrate the potential for enforcing a blockade. Is the blockade against Taiwan or the US? The basic drama playing out does not make sense to the average person like myself and this is why the US state propaganda does not have much substantive opposition at least in the west.
There's an URGENT need for China to break some records to at least double up if not triple up their stockpile of nuclear precision strike hypersonic ICBMs. The only way to prevent a smaller "localised" war is to ensure that the continent across the Pacific gets the FULL impact and effect of ANY war that they choose to start! Mutually Assured Destruction has to be GUARANTEED!
Was it right for us (one of the major aggressor in asia after ww2) to collude with Japan (another aggressor in Asia) which rape and killed million in Asia during their occupation during ww2 ?? Do these 2 aggressor flock together as friend now??
The manifest disagreement between the legislative and executive branches per se was unbecoming and pretty much further degraded the purpose of the visit. Hence, the suggestion that this was an orchestrated act is flimsy. This, together with the visual impact of the retreat of the USS Ronold Reagan, makes the suggestion quite credible.
Chances are that the visit was the personal conviction of an old woman, fervent about freedom and democracy, wanting to make a statement before she dies.
Taiwan has to settle with China and grow together as one CHINA.
Not even with the help of the USA the government of Taiwan is winning the Island right now.
Why do you think that militarily the USA is far away?
Because they know that right now getting into that fight CHINA has the power to destroy and sink all the aircraft carriers in less than an hour, those that are close to Taiwan and Japan.
As history says and it is the custom of the USA it only fights with small countries, the USA does not fight directly with large countries like CHINA AND RUSSIA does not do it directly because it is afraid of them.
Is us a friend/good neighbor or is us actually a foe to asia? No friend/good neighbor would do what us been doing to us and all other nation that is being bullied by us and its allies. Why need to play western camp if us wants to be good friend/good neighbor to all nation around the would?
That little plump woman in Taipei needs to be court martialled after WW3. For bringing misery to Chinese people on both sides.
Chinese propaganda
China must invade Taiwan and take over otherwise soon the US will lure Taiwan to join NATO and make things more difficult for change
The DPP has dubiously brought this confusion on Taiwan.
👍
For decades American kills so does the Chinese The difference: American kills non-American, and Chinese kills Chinese!
do you really believe that TW is so important to be the cause of a worl war ? Change your political leadership and become friends with the Peop. Republic of China. whether you like it or not, thatś is your destiny, period.
Glory to our Chinese people all over the world, and hello to both Joana and Tian Wei ! Today I wish to contribute some small idea for the reunion of our beloved motherland. Point (1) our leaders in Beijing need to bear in mind that "One China" means that our Communist Government is sovereign on both sides of China; our Government is the recognised by the UN & the world without exception as the Government of SAR Taiwan. That said PRChina will declare with much publicity eg. "Interviews by Tian Wei on China's sovereignty" etc… I say that Motherland need has rule (by passing law that declares Koumintang Party as the appointed Government of SAR Taiwan by China's Central Government of Motherland China. We will exercise this power as the Sovereign power of "One China". If we do not need to obtain the agreement of the KMT. The purpose of this action is to reduce opposition from "half" of the people of Taiwan. WHY WOULD KMT OPPOSE CCP'S REUNION OF BOTH SIDES OF THE STRAITS WHEN MOTHERLAND HAS INSTALLED KMT AS THE OFFICIAL SAR CHINA GOVERNMENT? Having taken this 2nd step, Motherland will then declare the "Democratic People's Party " of T'sai En Wen AS A TERRORIST ORGANISATION, and the election of T'sai En Wen as "illegal" & null & void because she was not elected by a legally constituted and valid constitution of Taiwan. The Constitution of the "Republic of China, is still legal Constitution of Taiwan and is the valid Constitutional Document of the ROC and until replaced by a legally promulgated Constitution the original Constitution passed by Gen. Chiang Kai Shek IS THE EXISTING CONSTITUTION OF KMT TAIWAN. DPP party of T'sai En Wen has no basis in law ! Having acted thus far, I suggest that PLA will have the greatest advantage by launching PLA's attack from Kouschium, the port city where the last KMT candidate for President and Mayor came from and has the biggest KMT support. PLA can place 300,000 troops to land with 100 jet planes as "air-cover" !
What I have contributed in a small way is to give expression to China's one country 2 systems. Use Hong Kong's present model as template ! My strategy is based on Motherland's own "one Country, two systems".
Stay strong Taiwan
Since we have made T'sai En Wen a terrorist, why not put a bounty of her head 'dead or alive" Reward $1 billion ($1,000,000,000). A reward like that will make it impossible to sleep; her mother may sell her out. What about her body guard ? No need to add more, $1 billion will buy all of them with some change !
True to that the us and its allies are in the go of taiwan they are now willing to play a win or lose stuation in this situation but will never ignite the fire first they will let china do the litting if china contineous bullying taiwan and will affect its economic activities then the us will intervene by directly escorting all shipping lines and commercial planes coming in and out of taiwan why.they will do this because its only the us the chinese are afraid of they are coward creatures never touch us bceause they know very well where they will be put by the us if the shooting war broke out surely china will be put into shamble and the chinese will regret it in their lifetime
雷倩姐姐 👍👍👍
The words of the guest is the real reason the US is doing. No one can trust the US.
American troops may have some courage to come to Taiwan, but they're unlikely to sacrifice themselves to defense a Chinese Province/Island.
It is rather odd, that when listening to Chinese state sponsored news agencies, I find that the reporting is somewhat balanced or calmed, without taunting anyone, without hate, and more importantly with context, whereas almost 99% of western reporting including Indian sources are mostly about the actions, with little context, and often one sided, often key trigger words are used, "communist", "aggressive", "defending democracy", "violating western values", "US officials have a right to travel anywhere", I see mostly arrogance and hubris from western powers.
How can this be titled 'a view from Taipei'? Taipei is the capital of the independent country of Tiawan. The government of China moved to Taipei in 1949 so theoretically Taipei is more probably the capital of China, compared to Beijing. Given that the CCP did not gain mainland government through peaceful means and the CCP has never controlled Tiawan, how is the CCP an authority to question Tiawan? The CCP has nothing to do with Tiawan and never has…..
Why is it that most responses are from brand new accounts with Western names? CCP bot army 😆 🤣 😂
Mao thanked the Japanese for invading and massacring Chinese people… That's a fact Chinese people would rather forget. Mao also advocated for Taiwan's independence in the 1930s. 😄
the white wants Chinese to fight Chinese… they could watch at the sideline …..to see taiwan leader behave like ukriane comedian president.. pull taiwan leader by the noise
只有現在武统台湾才可避免第三次世界大战!
You would never get this quality of exchange from Fox CNN or the BBC. A very intelligent interviewer and interviewee. There are no British or American politician who could be so balanced and insightful as the lady from Taiwan.
That is the world we are heading towards where people of a higher vibrationally level leads.
