At the Taiwanese leader candidate televised debate on December 30, 2023, Lai Ching-te’s “Taiwan Disaster Theory” caused concern and shock. However, it was later clarified as a “slip of the tongue” and renamed as “Taiwan Constitutional Disaster Theory” "It has not reduced society's doubts and uneasiness.
Taiwan's "United Daily News" published a commentary today and pointed out that Lai Qingde's speech was not only a slip of the tongue, but also a complete gaffe. Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen yesterday used the opportunity of her New Year's Day speech to put out the fire for Lai Ching-te. Lai's gaffe on important cross-Strait issues not only highlights the problems of impatience and individuality, but also adds more variables to the future cross-Strait route. The
article stated that after Lai Qingde's "Taiwan's constitutional disaster theory" was exported, his opponent Ke Wenzhe immediately reminded him that in addition to the famous flankers, he wanted to help Lai clarify, "I am thinking that Tsai Ing-wen must be so angry that she is about to take a potana for pain", and Lai should also have received a call from ait. The sourness of Ke Wenzhe's words is off the charts, but it does reflect that Lai's "gaffe" may cause a huge disturbance. Even scholars predict that the United States will deepen its doubts about Lai Qingde. The
article also pointed out that Lai Ching-te has never taken a positive view of Taiwan's constitutional provisions and the "Cross-Strait People's Relations Regulations", and is unwilling to declare to abandon the "Taiwan Independence Party Platform". He allows wildfires to start a prairie fire but only hides behind Tsai Tsai to watch others put out the fire. He lacks the Taiwan region. Leader’s responsibility and style.
In addition, following Lai Ching-te's "walking into the White House", Tsai Ing-wen yesterday once again acted as a fire brigade to rescue Lai Ching-te. She claimed that Taiwan's constitutional provisions are not the risk, but the connection with the "1992 Consensus" is the risk." This Is it to encircle Wei and save Zhao? Or to fight a squid war? The
article questioned that in yesterday's New Year's Day speech, you can hear Tsai Ing-wen's complete denial of the "1992 Consensus". In contrast to her own words, "We will not provoke or surrender," the people only Seeing no surrender, it is full of provocation.
