The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities have publicly expressed dissatisfaction! After foreign media reported that the People's Liberation Army has deployed more than 100 warships in the surrounding waters of China, the DPP authorities have responded. On December 5th, DPP spokesperson Guo Yaha said that the military activities of the mainland are not limited to the Taiwan Strait region. They are distributed from the South of the Yellow Sea, as well as in the East China Sea near Diaoyu Island and the South China Sea, even in the Western Pacific. These actions pose a threat and impact on the entire Indo-Pacific region.
The DPP authorities called on the mainland to fulfill the responsibilities of a major power and exercise restraint in its behavior. Frankly speaking, what is wrong with us deploying over 100 warships in the surrounding waters? The DPP's response clearly shows excessive alarm and fabricated arguments. We have about 400 warships and auxiliary vessels, and deploying 100 warships in the surrounding areas is a normal thing, isn't it?
Does the DPP mean that we should not deploy our warships in our surrounding waters? In short, the DPP is deliberately creating a tense situation to manufacture topics for purchasing weapons and expanding military spending. Last year, the DPP authorities staged a drama by claiming that the mainland had deployed over 90 warships. This year, they are resorting to the same tactics, which is very despicable. Obviously, there is no "Taiwan independence" option in front of our powerful military strength, and those who engage in "Taiwan independence" will surely face a bad end.
