[NTD News June 23, 2021 Beijing time]Tensions in the Taiwan Strait are escalating. The CCP’s attempt to attack Taiwan by force seems to be emerging, but the CCP has never given a specific timetable. Recently, Xie Chuntao, vice president of the Party School of the CPC Central Committee, said vaguely at a press conference that it may be difficult to tell a specific time, but it must be included in the Chinese dream.
According to the Chinese Communist Party media report, on June 22, the China Journalists Association held a news café in Beijing, inviting Xie Chuntao to communicate with domestic and foreign reporters and answer questions on the theme of “The Centennial History and Characteristics of the Communist Party of China”.
Xie Chuntao said that the CCP has been in power for more than 70 years, and the two sides of the strait are still divided and ruled. The complete reunification of the CCP “may be difficult to tell a specific time”, but the “Chinese Dream” definitely includes the complete reunification of the country.
The Chinese Dream is a slogan put forward by the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China Xi Jinping after he took office. He mentioned the “Chinese Dream” many times in public and was widely promoted by the Chinese Communist Party media.
When asked how he views the challenges that the CCP will face in the future, Xie Chuntao said that Xi Jinping once mentioned in the report of the 19th National Congress that realizing the Chinese dream is not easy to achieve.
In recent years, the CCP has faced accountability from the United States and Western countries on the virus epidemic, economic, political, military, Xinjiang, Hong Kong and Taiwan issues.
In this regard, Xie Chuntao said that it is not easy to cope with the challenge, and it has been coping with it in the past few years. He seems very fortunate to believe that in dealing with external challenges, especially in the face of the overall economic suppression of the last Trump administration in the United States, the CCP has not been defeated.
Western democracies join forces to resist communism
In recent months, American medical experts, politicians, and leftist media have drastically changed their views on the origin of the CCP virus.
From U.S. President Biden, Secretary of State Blincoln, members of the Senate and House of Representatives, to scientists, media, and the public from various countries, all have expressed great concern that the Chinese Communist Party virus may have leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
On May 26, Biden ordered the intelligence agencies to submit a report on the origin of the “Chinese Communist virus” within 90 days, and said that he would work with allies to pressure the CCP to make the CCP accept a comprehensive and transparent international investigation.
At the same time, Biden also exposed the CCP’s ambitions in public speeches. He publicly disclosed in a speech to the U.S. troops who withdrew from Afghanistan at the U.S. Army Joint Base Hampton Base in Virginia on May 28 that he had had private talks with Xi Jinping and that the CCP believed that in 2030 or 2035, the United States would be owned.
In early June, the Biden administration issued a new administrative order prohibiting US entities from buying or selling 59 publicly traded securities of Chinese companies related to the Chinese Communist Party’s defense and surveillance technology.
From June 11th to 13th, Biden also participated in the G7 summit in the United Kingdom, and invited Australia, India, South Korea, and all the “democracies” not present in the world to attend the meeting.
The alliance stated that it will work together to fight the pandemic and climate change, especially the aggressive CCP.
In the communiqué of the summit of the G7 leaders, which ended on June 13, called on the CCP to avoid any unilateral actions that might undermine the stability of the East China Sea and the South China Sea. And emphasized the “importance of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and encourages the peaceful settlement of cross-strait issues.”
The G7 announcement also took a rare tough stance, referring to Taiwan, Xinjiang, Hong Kong and other issues, calling for a thorough investigation of the origin of the CCP virus epidemic, and warning the CCP about the safety of the South China Sea and the East China Sea.
Subsequently, Biden arrived in Brussels on June 14 to attend the NATO summit. After the summit, NATO member states listed the CCP as a security challenge in the joint communiqué for the first time, mentioning the CCP’s ambitions and behavior, which poses a systemic challenge to the rules-based international order and alliance security-related fields.
American and European multinational aircraft carriers and warships intervene in the Taiwan Strait
Since the outbreak of the CCP virus, Beijing’s military threat to Taiwan has reached an unprecedented level. Fighters have entered the field of aerial awareness, skimming the center of the Taiwan Strait, and aircraft carriers have circumvented. This has aroused the vigilance of European and American countries.
On June 22, a U.S. Navy warship once again passed through the sensitive waters of the Taiwan Strait. On the same day, the U.S. Seventh Fleet Burke-class Aegis destroyer “USS Curtis Wilbur” (USS Curtis Wilbur, DDG 54) passed through the Taiwan Strait.
The Seventh Fleet said: “The passage of this ship through the Taiwan Strait demonstrates the United States‘ commitment to the free and open Indo-Pacific region.”
This is the sixth time that a US warship has passed through the Taiwan Strait since Biden took office. Including twice in February and once in March, April, and May, they are all Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyers.
In addition, on June 14th, the USS Reagan strike group once again entered the South China Sea and was conducting maritime safety drills. After that, the ship-borne F/A18F Super Hornet fighters started lifting training on the deck.
The US Navy’s Pacific Fleet once claimed that Reagan is the flagship of the aircraft carrier’s fifth strike group, providing a ready-to-operate force to protect and defend the United States, as well as the common interests of US allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific region.
On June 11, two US military special MC-130J aircraft, two KC-135 tankers, and two C-130 transport aircraft also appeared in the South China Sea. U.S. Defense News stated that MC-130J is generally used to perform special forces transportation missions, and it is likely to be performing secret missions around China.
In addition to the US aircraft carrier strike group and military aircraft, two US and Australian warships passed through the South China Sea on June 10. In the coming weeks, Australian warships will follow the British aircraft carrier battle group to conduct military exercises in the South China Sea.
According to the “Sydney Morning Herald” report on the 13th, the battle group led by the British aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth is expected to cross the Vietnam Sea in the next two to three weeks. Australia will also send warships to join this operation.
The director of the Australian Institute of Strategic Policy, Peter Jennings, said that the British aircraft carrier’s mission to the South China Sea is a signal that the United Kingdom has realized the importance of the security of the Indo-Pacific region to the country.
