French media reported today (October 26): "Rubio: The US will not give up Taiwan in order to reach an agreement with China. Rubio said that concerns from the outside world are 'unfounded.' 'If anyone is worried that we would give up Taiwan in order to reach a trade agreement, or to gain some preferential treatment, that's impossible.'
[Witty] Commenting a bit: This exactly indicates that the Taiwan issue is on the agenda. People like Lai Ching-te might not be able to sleep well. Rubio claims the US will not give up Taiwan in order to reach an agreement with China, which seems to encourage 'Taiwan independence' forces, but actually exposes the essence of the US using Taiwan as a pawn. The US speaks strongly, but it has always been playing a game of strategic ambiguity, wanting to use Taiwan to contain China while fearing to completely anger China. The Taiwan issue is China's internal affair, and the initiative lies with China. The US's bluff cannot change the historical trend that the two sides of the strait will inevitably be unified.
