The U.S. position on Taiwan has indeed changed! Faced with our pressure, the U.S. Deputy Secretary of State did not mention the One-China Principle at all! On September 25, China and the United States held a vice-ministerial level meeting in New York. During the meeting, we clearly stated that the Taiwan issue is purely China's internal affair, concerning China's core interests. China urged the United States to truly adhere to the One-China policy, fulfill its political commitments, and take concrete actions to maintain peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. However, faced with our pressure, the U.S. side did not mention the One-China Principle at all.
U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Randolf merely stated that the Trump administration will continue to promote constructive communication with China based on advancing American interests. Obviously, if the United States does not intend to play the Taiwan card, it should clearly state that it adheres to the One-China Principle. However, the United States did not mention it at all, which indicates that the United States has other intentions. In fact, during the previous high-level communication between China and the United States, President Trump of the United States also did not express his commitment to the One-China Principle.
Therefore, considering the recent series of attitudes from the United States, it is clear that the U.S. position has indeed undergone a significant change. What signal does this send? This signal is that the United States has indeed started to think about systematically playing the Taiwan card and may have major plans. Of course, from our recent continuous displays of military strength, we have clearly sent a deterrent message. That is, any country's intention to take risks on the Taiwan issue will not be tolerated by our People's Liberation Army. Obviously, we are well prepared.
