The Forum of the Straits will be held in Xiamen, China, on the 19th. The Kuomintang will be attended by a delegation headed by former Legislative Yuan Wang Jinping. However, the Chinese Communist Party “CCTV” media reported that Wang Jinping led a delegation to attend the Straits Forum because “this person wants to come and seek peace.” In response to this, Wang Yumin, chairman of the Kuomintang Literature and Communication Committee, said today (11) that he had protested to the Taiwan Affairs Office of China, the organizer of the Straits Forum, and condemned such comments, and that the film was removed from the shelves.
Wang Yumin pointed out that yesterday, “CCTV” reported that Wang Jinping led a delegation to attend the Straits Forum to seek peace with China. The KMT had solemnly protested and condemned such comments with the Taiwan Affairs Office of the Taiwan Straits Forum, the organizer of the Straits Forum last night. With regard to cross-strait exchanges, the Kuomintang advocates equality and reciprocity, and must take our dignity into account. Such comments will not help cross-strait exchanges and interactions.
Wang Yumin said the film has been pulled from the shelves, and the KMT reiterated that the Strait Forum delegation relied on non-governmental exchanges and believed that the two sides of the strait should continue to communicate, especially in the current situation where the two sides of the strait are very tense and the official cannot interact with each other. Next, the Kuomintang is willing to play the role of a non-governmental organization and attend the Straits Forum, in the hope that there will be a pragmatic and rational communication on the other side, and the Kuomintang should clearly express its position.
Wang Yumin believes that the peace talks that appeared on CCTV this time have overshadowed our doubts. We must call on the other party to face this situation and present basic principles. We must communicate in equality and defend our dignity. Such comments will appear in the future.
Regarding the harassment over the intrusion of Chinese Communists into the Southwest Air Defense Identification Zone for two consecutive days, the Ministry of National Defense held a press conference last night and denounced the move as a “ serious provocation. ” Wang Yumin stated that the position of the Kuomintang is clear and that both sides of the Taiwan Strait hope to maintain a peaceful route. Tension, conflict, and provocative behavior are not welcome, and are also opposed to that behavior.
When asked if KMT Chairman Jiang Qichen met with Wang Jinping yesterday, if he asked him to send a message to the Chinese side, Zuo Zhengdong, director of the KMT Chinese Affairs Department, replied that the KMT is a centennial party and that its efforts for the Chinese nation and Taiwan over the past century should be respected. The Straits Forum will not disappoint the more than 5 million people who voted for the Kuomintang in this year’s elections, and it is worthy of the 23 million Taiwanese. With regard to the Communist Party military exercises, yesterday also expressed Taiwan’s concerns to the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, hoping to address this matter directly.
Zuo Zhengdong also mentioned that if Jiang Qichen wants Wang Jinping to be part of the message, Wang Jinping has explained to the outside world, Wang Lai is responsible for explaining everything, and I think I will inform him at the right time.
The Kuomintang stated in response to the “CCTV” report that Wang Jinping came to “seek peace”:
Regarding the CCTV program across the Straits broadcast yesterday by the Chinese media, a movie appeared with the title “This man wants to seek peace in China.” The KMT had protested last night to China’s Taiwan Affairs Office, the organizer of the Straits Forum.
The Kuomintang organized a delegation to participate in the long-standing “Forum of the Straits”, mainly in the hope that, through communication and dialogue, mutual understanding and exchanges between people on both sides of the Strait and the basic conditions for peace in the Taiwan Strait can be created. A few days ago, President Tsai also expressed concern about the cross-strait cleanup and fire, and hopes to negotiate with the other side.
As an opposition party, we must be more responsible for giving people different options. In the past, China’s energetic actions and the manipulation and distortion of the DPP government have brought both sides of the strait to the brink of war and caused panic among the people of Taiwan.
The Foro del Estrecho is a platform for non-governmental exchanges. Non-governmental contacts and exchanges can help ease the deadlock between the two sides and create an atmosphere for cross-strait dialogue. Therefore, the Kuomintang once again led a delegation to attend the Strait Forum, especially when the DPP government threatened to block cross-strait exchanges for various reasons, the Kuomintang should support cross-strait non-governmental exchanges .
This forum should be a purely non-governmental exchange. Neither party should seize the opportunity to engage in political propaganda and change the tone of the exchange. The Kuomintang adopts a rational and pragmatic attitude, but pays more attention to equality and dignity. This is the prerequisite for cross-strait exchanges. The pursuit of peace across the Taiwan Strait is by no means a one-sided humility, nor a commitment in exchange for peace, but rather the hope that peace can be exchanged through communication and dialogue, and peace can be guaranteed through a thick planting of national defense capabilities.
The KMT severely condemns the Chinese CCTV film. Such comments are not only a defenseless and benign interaction, distorting the quest and clear intentions, hurting the feelings of people on both sides of the strait, but also seriously hurting all those who still hold aspirations for peace. It is hoped that China can take effective measures to guide the audience and create an atmosphere of peace and mutual trust.
