That’s! Attack on Xiao Meiqin to participate in the inauguration of Biden 8 big rumors cracked | Politics | New boss Newtalk

My country’s representative to the United States, Xiao Meiqin, attended the inauguration ceremony of the new president of the United States, Biden, on the 20th. However, there were doubts from the outside world, including Xiao Meiqin paying to buy a seat. , Xiao Meiqin’s seat was very marginal, and Xiao Meiqin’s photo location was not in the spot … The fan of the book “US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” posted a clarification on Facebook today (22).

“US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” previously noted on Facebook that the United States held its 46th presidential inauguration on January 20. Ambassador Xiao Meiqin, the war cat, was invited to participate. This is the first time since 1979 that China won the United States. The “Opening Ceremony and Joint Congressional Committee” were officially invited to participate in the ceremony as a diplomatic envoy in lieu of the general admission ticket provided by the US congressman. However, there have been many rumors on the Internet, and many netizens have asked for advice. How to answer, let them clarify one by one.

Regarding netizens who questioned that the place where Ambassador Xiao took the photos was not in the place, but outside the wall, US Taiwan Watch explained that the place where Ambassador Xiao took the photos was on the lawn in front of the Capitol. If this is not the place, where is it? It’s the place? If this is a place you can go anywhere, why didn’t you see other passersby come to take pictures of the same lawn? Also, roads are closed about 3 miles in downtown Washington, and there are FBI personnel patrolling the station half an hour away. Will ordinary people rush to the front of the Capitol to take selfies? It has been resolved on the Internet, many ambassadors from various countries who participated in the opening ceremony took photos on the same lawn.

“US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” stated that some people questioned that Ambassador Xiao’s location is very marginal, so it is useless to go to the site, but in fact there are many participants in the inauguration ceremony, including 50 states + DC (Washington, DC) + numbers Representatives from Overseas Territories, there are more than 500 members of Congress. Capitol Hill covers an area of ​​16 acres, which is more than 10 times the size of the Presidential Palace in Taiwan. “We cannot use the scale of the inauguration of Taiwan to estimate the United States.” And the purpose of the inauguration of the United States And the main audience has always been the American crowd. Ambassador Xiao’s position is already far ahead. Even if you are not at the front, this statement does not make sense. Also, in past opening ceremonies, most of the opening ceremonies were incorrect except for the seats in the stands. No. The seats of the Taiwan delegation! they are busy by diplomats early!

In response to rumors that Ambassador Xiao bought this post for a fee, it is said to have cost almost $ 10,000. “US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” revealed that this type of statement is quite common. If the media or think tanks report good things in Taiwan, some people will say that Taiwan bought them, and some even say that Taiwan’s ruling party buys the entire Washington think tank. If Taiwan is really that prestigious, then diplomats can go home and wash up. After washing and sleeping, you don’t have to work so hard to join an international organization, just buy it? Also, if worthy American congressmen can be easily bought, and administrative officials can also be bought, and the congressional joint committee can be bought for only $ 10,000, then the governments of every country in the world have not come to buy it. ? Furthermore, James Risch, chairman of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee, also tweeted to praise the executive department for sending an invitation letter to Ambassador Xiao. Could it be that the senator’s tweets were also used for shopping? For diplomatic breakthroughs like this, they all add up over a long period of time. We have done a good job of diplomacy in the United States. Members of Congress have given Taiwan more voice and have become many good friends in the political circle. Only under various conditions can we achieve a breakthrough like this inauguration.

The article mentioned that some netizens questioned that Xiao Meiqin did not talk about it the first time he received the invitation letter, and that he must be trying to manipulate the polls. In this regard, the “US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” emphasized. Please rely on Professional diplomacy, Taiwan’s situation is very special, because no matter what Taiwan does, there will be a great crystal-hearted country crying out. Former Secretary of State Pompeo once made a public speech saying that even Taiwanese in high school should participate in science fair seminars. The boycott is really over the top. In fact, it is probably not difficult to imagine that if Xiao Meiqin brought out the invitation letter beforehand, it could be said that it is flaunted (or even said to be false); if he didn’t take it out, it would be said he was cheating, and he could fabricate rumors and attack anyway! The matter of attending the inauguration ceremony of the President of the United States as diplomatic envoy is of great importance, of course, it is handled by the diplomatic team, in coordination with the United States, they will make the best judgment.

In response to some comments, the United States deliberately delayed the invitation letter until the last minute, which is basically toying with Taiwan. “US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” said that the Foreign Ministry has already come out to explain that we actually took it a week or two ago, it is time for the invitation letter, and I have also prepared in advance to comply With the US inauguration epidemic prevention regulations, but really no need to take it out and scream. And with that said, the current epidemic in America is still very serious, no one was sure before whether or how this large-scale ceremony could be completed. Due to the severity of the epidemic, there is no way to participate in the same way as before at the invitation of members of Congress, so our diplomatic team seems to have responded very early.

In response to rumors that “Ambassador Xiao did not receive the invitation letter at all, you see that she was not carrying an identification card,” “US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” bluntly stated that the police closed the National Mall. and the Capitol How can I go to the place without an invitation letter? In addition, there are photos of the inauguration ceremony of the President of the United States on the Internet that the general public can attend, so Ambassador Xiao ran alone without being invited. The article also explained that the photo was provided by a member of the Taiwanese government. From the bottom of the photo. When I wake up, the people in the photo are wearing raincoats and no masks. The clouds in the sky are very dense. However, on January 20 this year, the Washington DC Sun and the epidemic is serious now, everyone must wear masks. This photo was obviously not taken this year, and the opening ceremony in the past was originally open to the general public to participate, and it was all organized by members of Congress.

Furthermore, there are rumors that Xiao Meiqin had hurt the military purchase and that Xiao Meiqin’s communication expenses would be frozen at 30%, but in fact the KMT Yuan Legislative Caucus on the 21st proposed to cut Ambassador Xiao’s communication expenses Meiqin by 30%. The Kuomintang Yuan Legislative Caucus noted that Xiao Meiqin had publicly stated in the past that the United States would sell me the DOD smart mines, but this was denied, apparently it was a blatant release of fake news, and the proposal required to freeze Xiao Meiqin communication expenses by 30%.

“US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” stated that these are probably several common attacks or rumors. Ambassador Xiao’s participation in the inauguration ceremony as a diplomatic envoy is an important event that set a precedent for Taiwan. It allows everyone to see the continuity of the Taiwan-United States relations. Taiwan-US relations are a high consensus issue between the two main parties and are also Taiwan’s. The diplomatic team and the Taiwanese Americans have accumulated long-term hard work. The public must continue to cheer on front-line staff! In particular, if you think about it, the United States is now a severely affected area, with more than 200,000 confirmed diagnoses every day. In this situation, negotiating various diplomatic affairs is equivalent to advancing under the hail of bullets!

Regarding the representative of my country in the United States, Xiao Meiqin, attended the inauguration ceremony of the new President of the United States Biden on the 20th, many rumors appeared on the Internet. Facebook fan “US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” posted a special clarification about Facebook today (22).

Regarding netizens who questioned that the place where Ambassador Xiao took the photos was not in the place, but outside the wall, US Taiwan Watch explained that the place where Ambassador Xiao took the photos was on the lawn in front of the Capitol. If this is not the place, where is it? It’s the place?

In response to rumors that Ambassador Xiao bought this position for a fee, it is said to have cost almost $ 10,000. “US Taiwan Watch: US Taiwan Observatory” revealed that this statement is quite common, but if Taiwan really If they are prestigious, in fact, diplomats can go home to wash and sleep, and do not have to work as much to join a international organization, do you only use what you buy?
