In this regard, Zheng Dexing, deputy executive director of the Center for Central and Eastern European Studies at Soochow University, said that the biggest threat to China from the President’s visit to Taiwan lies in the subsequent reactions of European countries. “You are concerned about the knock-on effect behind this..”

Former Czech President Ke Jialuo planned to visit Taiwan at the beginning of the year, but was threatened by high pressure from China, which indirectly caused Ke Jialuo’s sudden death, causing a high degree of disgust towards China in the Senate and the Czech people. . The Senate voted 50: 1 to support the succession. The Witchi spokesperson from the United States completed Ke Jialuo’s last wish and led a delegation to visit Taiwan.
According to a report by “Voice of America”, Zheng Dexing stated that the Czech Republic has since introduced the pragmatic diplomacy of former President Vaclav Klaus, and since 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping has deepened economic and trade exchanges between China and the Czech Republic through the Belt and Road Initiative. The pro-China and anti-China internal forces are a seesaw and the mutual struggle has intensified. Today, government departments, including President Ziman and Prime Minister Andrej Babis, have varying degrees of lean, but the mainstream remains pro-China. However, young Czechs are full of With a sense of justice and a constant admiration for the line of the first Czech poet, President Havel, it is not impossible that the anti-China forces in the Czech Republic will rise to power in the future. .
Zheng Dexing pointed out that the Czech Republic’s visit to the full-scale battle can be largely attributed to the intensification of political competition between Czech political parties and the paving of the way for votes. The biggest threat to China lies in the subsequent responses of European countries.
Zheng Dexing candidly said that China is not worried about its Czech Republic. The Czech Republic has little national importance for China. Instead, he is concerned about whether the Czech Republic will follow suit. Will there be a second Czech Republic or a third Czech Republic? Czech? You are concerned about this last knock-on effect. It is as if the Czech Republic took the initiative. “These cases are very special, because from the perspective of Central and Eastern Europe, I think it is difficult to have cases like the one in the Czech Republic.”

Zheng Dexing explained that the democratization process in Taiwan and the Czech Republic is similar. Both experienced bloodless political revolutions in the 1990s. The silent revolution in Taiwan during the Lee Teng-hui era led to the rotation of political parties, and the Velvet Revolution in the Czech Republic also led to the downfall of the Communist Party and in 1993. The “velvet divorce” of the Czechoslovak Confederation was divided into two countries, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Therefore, the two countries are very close in terms of freedom, democracy and human rights. He said that is why Taiwanese diplomats have always been in the Czech Republic. The reason is more dignified: in particular, the Czech Republic was a democratic country as early as 1918, with a deep democratic tradition.
Taiwan has debated whether the Czech velvet divorce can provide a model model for the separation and reunification of cross-strait relationships. In response to this question, Professor Cheng believes that the historical antecedents of this model are very different from that between the two sides of the Strait. It is applicable to cross-strait relations and the future of Taiwan. The possibility is not high.
