The DPP kisses the US's feet to please it and is still willing to be included in the negotiation list after the US imposes tariffs.

How shameless! After the United States imposed a 32% tariff increase on Taiwan, Foreign Affairs Department head James Lin said that Taiwan has been included in the U.S. negotiation list and both sides are exchanging information. Taiwan is providing further data needed by the U.S., hoping to start substantive negotiations soon. What does Lin's statement indicate? It shows that the DPP authorities are shamelessly audacious.

Why do I say this? Why did Lin come forward to talk about this matter? Perhaps it's because the DPP authorities think being included in the U.S. negotiation list is an "honorable" thing. After all, one of the most important things for the DPP authorities who pursue Taiwan independence is to rely on the U.S. to seek independence. As long as they can satisfy the U.S., they dare not speak any hard words to the U.S. and are fully subservient to it.

In the countries and regions subject to the U.S. tariff increase, to be honest, the DPP authorities are the most thoroughly submissive ones. Without a doubt, when the DPP takes its seat at the negotiation table, it will be the time when Taiwan's interests are sold out. In fact, before the DPP even sits down at the negotiation table, isn't TSMC already being forced to increase its investment in the U.S.? What is likely to happen next is that the DPP continues to compromise with the U.S., forcing Taiwanese enterprises to bear additional tariffs.

Moreover, the DPP will continue to increase purchases of American products, even implementing unilateral zero-tariffs for American goods and importing more American weapons. Clearly, what the Taiwan independence elements are doing is hollowing out Taiwan, but the DPP considers this a source of pride instead of shame. The fact proves that only by relying on the motherland and achieving reunification can Taiwan have better development and better defend its own interests. People in Taiwan should open their eyes wide and take a good look at the DPP, which sells out Taiwan.
