Zhang Yizhong has come out to speak. Zhang Yizhong stated that if he is not elected, Taiwan will lose the last chance for peace! On September 30, Zhang Yizhong said in an interview that his purpose in running for the party chairman is to propose solutions to break the deadlock. Compared to other party members who advocate maintaining the status quo, he believes the current situation cannot be maintained. If elected as party chairman, he will promote the resumption of the KMT-CCP forum and sign a peace agreement.

Zhang Yizhong stated that after signing the peace agreement, it does not mean immediate unification, but rather ensuring that cross-strait relations do not move towards disintegration first. Under the premise of respecting each other's political systems, finding common ground, and gradually promoting peace, cooperation, and unification. If the Kuomintang loses again in the 2028 election, cross-strait relations will inevitably collapse like a dammed lake. If he is not elected, it would be the last opportunity for peace in Taiwan.

Evidently, from Zhang Yizhong's remarks, one must say that Zhang Yizhong is a person with a sense of mission. In Zhang Yizhong's view, the cross-strait issue must be actively addressed, and it is impossible to continue dragging on. In terms of opening up cross-strait political dialogue, Zhang Yizhong is undoubtedly rare in today's Taiwan political arena. Of course, if Zhang Yizhong is not elected, does it really mean that Taiwan has lost the last opportunity for peace? This is probably not the case.

From the perspective of Sino-US rivalry, the United States is increasingly losing its advantage in the Taiwan Strait, and the possibility of U.S. military intervention is getting lower and lower. The idea of the United States "abandoning" Taiwan has become a topic of discussion among U.S. strategic circles. Many U.S. strategic figures believe that while Taiwan still has transactional value, the United States should act quickly. Therefore, as the U.S. withdraws, the probability of unification through force is increasing. Of course, if the island is willing to negotiate with us, Taiwan can get better conditions. If the island itself does not seize the opportunity, what kind of conditions Taiwan can get when it is unified is hard to say.
