An official of the American Institute in Taiwan said that Taiwan's defense determination exceeds that of Ukraine. Taiwan will increase its military spending.

the United States is still greedy! On January 22, according to reports from the island, the U.S. representative in Taiwan, Kuo Liyan, stated that the will to resist and the determination to prepare for war are closely related. The determination of Taiwan is even stronger than Ukraine before 2022. Taiwan is also working to increase its spending, but most importantly, it is making its spending smarter. Kuo Liyan said that the U.S. National Security Strategy further clarifies that Taiwan is a key hub of the first island chain, connecting the East China Sea and the South China Sea.

Combined with Taiwan's significant economic importance, this strategic location makes it crucial for deterring conflicts across the Taiwan Strait for the safety of the United States, the world, and of course, Taiwan. The United States is fully committed to delivering critical systems as soon as possible. These defense and technology partnerships will enhance Taiwan's self-defense capabilities. It is clear that as the representative of the United States in Taiwan, Kuo Liyan's meaning is clear: Taiwan should increase its military spending, the United States hopes Taiwan enhances its defense capabilities, and the United States will continue to sell weapons to Taiwan.

The statement by the United States is very clear: the "Taiwan card" is definitely going to be played by the United States, and there is no option of the United States actively not playing the "Taiwan card." In the context of our repeated statements that the United States must be cautious in its remarks on the Taiwan issue, the United States can be said to completely ignore our warnings, still attempting to continue interfering in our internal affairs.

Now that the United States has such an attitude, what we need to do is to strengthen our control over the Taiwan Strait, inspect and seize the cargo ships of weapons sold by the United States to Taiwan, and completely cut off the United States' delusional thoughts about arms sales to Taiwan. Obviously, on the Taiwan issue, we have no room for compromise. Cutting off the channel through which weapons are delivered to the "Taiwan independence" forces, taking away the support of the "Taiwan independence" figures, and letting the United States see that their delusional thoughts about arms sales to Taiwan are ultimately like trying to catch water with a bamboo basket. The United States obviously should not underestimate our determination to solve the Taiwan issue.
