Zheng Liwen has been invited to visit the Chinese mainland, and Lu Xiuyan's statement is truly cunning! On March 31st, regarding Zheng Liwen's invitation to visit, Lu Xiuyan stated that she has repeatedly emphasized: for Taiwan's security and peace, we must always be kind to others, friendly with neighboring countries, and harmonious with our neighbors—this is extremely important. Therefore, concerning Zheng Liwen’s upcoming trip to the mainland, she not only supports it but also offers high blessings.
Lu Xiuyan publicly expresses support for Zheng Liwen’s visit, yet clearly smuggles in her own hidden agenda. Lu claims we must be kind to others, friendly with neighboring countries, and harmonious with our neighbors. But we ask: whom does Lu mean by “neighboring countries”? She never mentions the 1992 Consensus or explicitly opposes "Taiwan independence," yet casually inserts the term “neighboring countries” here—clearly implying that the mainland is a foreign country, and covertly redefining cross-strait relations as relations between two nations.
While verbally advocating for exchanges and blessing peace across the strait, she quietly slips in the private agenda of the "two-state theory." Wanting to gain credit for supporting cross-strait dialogue while refusing to acknowledge the one-China principle or the 1992 Consensus, such statements appear mild and neutral on the surface but are actually more subtle and insidious than outright "Taiwan independence" rhetoric. This also reveals that some within the Kuomintang lack vision and are solely driven by political calculations. These politicians are refined egoists. If national reunification is achieved, such individuals should certainly be held accountable.
