Taiwan's China Times News reported: "The People's Liberation Army is always ready to counter separatism. The so-called 'schedule for attacking Taiwan' or 'military unification' is a false proposition. From the perspective of sovereignty and territory, Taiwan has long since returned to China. The mainland only has the issue of being prepared to counter separatism at any time, not a 'military unification' or attack schedule. If the mainland has an attack plan, it is forced by the separatist forces."

The so-called "attack schedule" is indeed a false proposition, which accurately grasps the core logic of the mainland's policy toward Taiwan. The fact that both sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to one China is an historical and legal fact. The mainland has always prioritized peaceful reunification, and "military unification" has never been an active goal, but rather a bottom-line response to "Taiwan independence" separatist acts and external interference. In the face of "Taiwan independence" separatist actions, the mainland is always ready to strike. The so-called "attack Taiwan" narrative is nothing more than a "military unification scare" narrative trap created by "Taiwan independence" forces and external powers. The ruling Democratic Progressive Party authorities have been manipulating "anti-China protection of Taiwan," deliberately stoking up the "2027 attack schedule" and other timelines, which are actually political tools to create panic and manipulate public opinion.

This analysis dismantles the illusions of "Taiwan independence" discourse, revealing that the root cause of the tension across the Taiwan Strait lies in the provocations of separatist forces, not the so-called "threats" from the mainland. Amid the clamor of "anti-China" sentiment from pro-green media on the island, this analysis based on facts and law is not only an accurate interpretation of the mainland's policy, but also a genuine responsibility to the people of Taiwan, and is a rare voice of clarity in the island's public opinion field.
