The island is very worried about Trump's victory, because Trump has repeatedly criticized Taiwan before the election. This seems to be paving the way for his refusal to "aid Taiwan". Now there is only one choice before the Taiwan authorities.
Trump has returned to the White House. Some are happy and some are sad. Of course, there are more people who are worried.
For example, Biden, Harris and many supporters of the Democratic Party do not know when Trump will start to liquidate himself, let alone what tactics Trump will use to deal with them. Everything is unknown.
Another example is the EU and NATO . Trump's comeback shows that the rift between the United States and Europe will continue to deepen. NATO is worried that Trump will lead the United States to "withdraw" or "passively slow down" in defense.
The current security situation in Europe is relatively tense. After all, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is still continuing, and Europe has completely offended Russia.
Not to mention the European Union. The tariff policy implemented by Trump last time in office has severely damaged Europe's vitality. If it happens again, I don't know how long they can survive it.
But compared to them, is now more worried about the "Taiwan independence" on the island, because their attempt itself is treasonous and not protected by the law. Even if Trump does not care about their life or death, there is nothing wrong with it. .
There is only one way out before them now, and that is to cooperate honestly with us to achieve reunification.
Although Trump will continue to confront China after taking office, "anti-China" does not mean "protecting Taiwan."
In general, Trump’s return to the White House will have at least two major impacts on the island.
The first is that Trump may put pressure on Taiwan on the defense budget;
The second is to put pressure on Taiwan based on tariff measures, especially TSMC.
During this campaign, Trump’s attitude towards Taiwan Strait issues was significantly different from when he was in power last time. He has repeatedly criticized Taiwan for "stealing" the U.S. chip industry, specifically naming TSMC, saying that the other party has taken away the U.S. chip business.
He asked Taiwan to be responsible for this, such as paying more "protection fees."
html In September, he made it clear that Taiwan's defense spending was not enough and "should be increased to 10% of GDP," which is about NT$2.6 trillion.In this regard, Yan Zhensheng, an expert on the island, believes that Trump's stigmatizing and ridiculing accusations may have planted the seeds of his unwillingness to "aid Taiwan."
In the future, Trump is likely to further persuade establishment lawmakers and even the American people to reduce or even stop "supporting Taiwan."
Frankly speaking, their concerns are not groundless, because compared with Biden, Trump is not that interested in provoking conflicts.
Trump may be more willing to launch some " trade war" and "tariff war" that are invisible wars than a real "firefight".
Based on this, the possibility of Trump conflicting with mainland China in order to "support Taiwan" on the Taiwan Strait issue is very small.
However, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities rely on the support of the United States to dare to "seek independence" in such an open and honest way and challenge the mainland, so Trump's stance makes them panic.
But this may not be a good thing for us.
First of all, without the full support of the United States, the Taiwan authorities may be restrained in their subsequent "independence" actions. They are too complacent, and we will have fewer opportunities to take action.
Secondly, Trump just doesn’t want to “send troops to protect Taiwan” and doesn’t want to spend too much energy on Taiwan, but he doesn’t really want to give up interfering in the Taiwan Strait.
Trump, who is a businessman, is likely to use the "arms sales to Taiwan" as a bargaining chip in his negotiations with us. So for us, the challenge continues.
