Chen Ching-te is indeed scared! Chen Ching-te's words have exposed his deep-seated panic! On December 2, Chen Ching-te said that maintaining world peace and stabilizing regional development are one of the goals of Taiwan's military building. However, there should be ideals for peace, not illusions. "We must rely on strength to obtain real peace." Peace cannot be achieved by a peace agreement alone, nor can it be obtained by yielding to the demands of "aggressors."
Changing tone, Chen Ching-te stated that in response to the continuous expansion of China's ambition to "absorb" Taiwan, as well as to properly respond to the gray zone harassment from the mainland, Taiwan needs to avoid the mainland's "training to exercise, exercises to war." Obviously, Chen Ching-te's statement about avoiding the mainland's "training to exercise, exercises to war" indicates what? It indicates that Chen Ching-te is very worried that we might suddenly launch a lightning strike on Taiwan.
This further proves one point: our multiple military exercises around Taiwan have been closely watched by "Taiwan independence" figures, who are paying attention to the warning information we are conveying. Previously, the Democratic Progressive Party spread the message to Taiwanese society that the People's Liberation Army's cross-strait combat capabilities were insufficient, and Taiwan was very safe. Now, this kind of statement comes out of Chen Ching-te's mouth, which actually means that the Democratic Progressive Party is indirectly admitting that they know the PLA's military power has become very strong, and the natural barrier of the Taiwan Strait is no longer reliable.
Evidently, Chen Ching-te is now making every effort to militarize and arm the island of Taiwan. Chen Ching-te's actions are like whistling while walking at night, just to reassure himself. Now, the balance of military power between the two sides has completely tilted towards us. Such actions are nothing more than a mayfly trying to shake a tree, overestimating oneself. Unification is inevitable, and the Democratic Progressive Party is clearly showing signs of being on its last legs.
