Taiwanese food maker to rescue Lithuania
It was revealed on the １０th that a Taiwanese food maker bought evaporated milk from Lithuania, which was refused to be received from China. With the cooperation of the governments of Taiwan and Lithuania, about １,０００ boxes have already arrived in Taiwan . A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Joanne Ou, announced on the １１th that he would continue to cooperate in expanding sales channels for Lithuanian products in Taiwan.
Since the establishment of Taiwan's representative agency "Taiwanese Representative Office in Lithuania" in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, Lithuania has been retaliated by China. China has announced that it will downgrade its diplomatic relations with Lithuania to "Chargé d'Affaires", and is increasing pressure by stalling # red# Lithuanian products exported to China at customs clearance.
MEMO Lithuania was forced to close the Lithuanian embassy in China by establishing a Taiwan representative office.
Progressing relationship between Taiwan and the Baltic States
Evaporated milk was purchased by Amada Food Technology (Hsinchu County). The amount is as much as one container. The person in charge of the company told the Central News Agency that he would make Hong Kong-style milk tea from the purchased evaporated milk and sell it to the world. The person in charge is a Hong Konger who has lived in Taiwan for more than ３０ years, and when he combined Evaporated milk from Lithuania and blended tea from Sri Lanka, he said that a "nostalgic taste" was created.
The developed Hong Kong-style milk tea will be packaged in a design that incorporates the Lithuanian flag "yellow, green, red". At the same time as symbolizing Lithuania's support for Taiwan, it also wants to express the company's support for Lithuania.
POINT Lithuanian friendship with Taiwan has been forced to close the Lithuanian embassy in China. Taiwan will deepen its friendship with Lithuania.

Xi Jinping sends a congratulatory message to Taiwan Nationalist Party Chairman Zhu Li-Lun - The purpose of shaking Taiwanese public opinion is the 2024 Taiwan presidential election.
Xi Jinping sent a telegram of congratulations to Mr. Zhu Li-Lun, who took office as the head of the Taiwan Nationalist Party on September 26th, and expressed that both parties share a common political commitment to oppose Taiwan's independence, aiming for peace in the Taiwan Strait, national reunification, and national rejuvenation. He expressed his hope for cooperation on this basis. Mr. Zhu Lilun said that in recent years, under the Democratic Progressive Party government, ``anti-China'' policies were adopted, which led to the deterioration of the situation on both sides of the strait. He responded that he opposed Taiwanese independence and wanted to deepen cooperation while respecting each other's differences. In other words, both sides confirmed that the current Taiwan Strait issue was caused by the Democratic Progressive Party, which denies the ``92 common sense'' and ``one country, two systems.''
Xi Jinping and the Nationalist Party have concluded that the Taiwan Strait issue is an issue caused by President Tsai Ing-wen and the independence faction of the Democratic Progressive Party.
Although the Biden administration's Taiwan Strait policy appears to be a continuation of the Trump administration, it is actually different. Biden, don't cause trouble while he's president. It looks like that's all he's saying. Indo-Pacific Coordinator Campbell's statement that he does not support Taiwan's independence is not the government's official position, but does this mean that even if Taiwan were to declare independence, it would not recognize it? The idea is to maintain three joint communiques.
The three joint communiqués are a compilation of the 1972 dialogue between President Nixon and Prime Minister Chou Enlai.
Let's assume that relations between China and Taiwan proceed peacefully until the next Taiwan presidential election in 2024, as Xi Jinping said. If the Democratic Progressive Party advocates Taiwan independence during the presidential election, the Kuomintang is sure to stir up public opinion by repeatedly attacking them and asking why they are making claims that would lead to war when peace has finally come. Chinese hackers will attack the PCs of Democratic Progressive Party members to sniff out scandals, and they will interfere in elections in every possible way.
Elections are only a process, not a goal. Unless a declaration of independence is drafted, this problem will arise every time Taiwan has a presidential election. The Biden administration in the United States will run until January 2025. What would it mean for Xi Jinping if Trump were to return to office? Xi Jinping has his sights firmly set on Taiwan's 2024 presidential election.
While the Taiwan Strait issue will end with Taiwan's declaration of independence, it is highly likely that it will lead to war.
Will Miss. Chou Ting's message reach Taiwanese youth? - What is the ripple effect of his declaration of asylum in Canada?
After Miss. Chou Ting announced his intention to seek asylum in Canada, Hong Kong police said they would do everything in their power to arrest him since the December 29 deadline for his return to the country had passed. Mr. Shuba also mentioned the existence of secret police and the danger of being targeted by spies. He went to Canada to study abroad in September 2023.
The Hong Kong protests are said to have been triggered by China's National People's Congress's decision in 2014 to restrict the number of candidates for the post of chief executive of Hong Kong. At this time, a large demonstration occurred and was also called the Umbrella Movement. Since then, demonstrations against the enactment of the Fugitive Offenders Act and the National Security Act have continued to grow in scale and have been reported around the world. Mr. Shutei is considered to be one of the central figures.
The enactment of these laws will be seen as a de facto collapse of one country, two systems, and investment in Hong Kong from various countries will be withdrawn one after another, accelerating China's current isolation. Mr. Shuba was subsequently arrested and detained, but the charges were relatively light and he was sentenced to 10 months in prison, although he was actually released after about 6 months.
It appeared to be an attempt by the Chinese government to suppress the demonstrations and appease the ringleaders. I wonder if it means that they don't want to provoke the students any more, or they don't want to provoke other countries, but what happened after that was Mr. Shuba's study abroad. I was honestly surprised by this as well. I wonder if a person who incited the people and caused a large-scale demonstration in China could study abroad.This seems like a placating measure, but I imagine that Taiwan could be an extension of this.
It is said that students from the Sunflower Movement in Taiwan taught Hong Kong students how to demonstrate. This led to large-scale demonstrations in Hong Kong, and the enthusiasm returned to Taiwan, leading to a dramatic come-from-behind victory in Taiwan's presidential election in 2017 for Tsai Ing-wen, who was said to be at a disadvantage. Taiwan will become the next Hong Kong. The younger generation's sense of crisis about the end of Taiwan's democracy had a major impact on electoral behavior. If the spark was smoldering in Hong Kong, it could once again influence Taiwan's elections. On the other hand, the fact that Mr. Zhou Ting is able to study abroad in Canada freely could be used to appeal to young Taiwanese people.
This is a de facto declaration of asylum at this timing. The timing of the Taiwan presidential election was probably decided to be at the end of this year because it was held on December 3rd, Miss. Chou Ting's birthday, and the deadline for returning to Japan was December 29th. is January 13, 2024. If the Chinese government had been aiming for a placating policy, the message that Mr. Zhouting's life was in danger was the complete opposite, and the news was sure to reach Taiwan as well. The goddess of democracy is alive and well.
Is the orange devil that is so popular in Taiwan a brilliant strategy of President Tsai Ing - wen? Japan should also learn from Taiwan.
Orange devil is very popular in Taiwan
Free youth is a symbol of democracy
Shocking dignified high school student
Are you considering lowering the voting age?
It seems that the Kyoto Tachibana High School boom in Taiwan has not subsided yet. Japanese high school students, known as the ``orange devils,'' were invited to Taiwan's Double Ten Festival and gave a spectacular performance to appeal for friendship between Japan and Taiwan.
The Double Ten Festival is a ceremony that celebrates Taiwan's National Foundation Day, and it is unusual for a high school student from a foreign country to appear as the main event. What's more, there was even a surprise appearance by President Tsai Ing-wen during the tour of the Presidential Palace. In Taiwan, Japan is a senior country in liberal democracy, and as we were once the same country for 50 years, there is a lot of interest in Japan.
It appears that this ``orange devil'' was invited to the ceremony as a symbol of liberal democracy. In other words, this is an excellent performance by the Tsai Ing-wen administration. In the 2024 presidential election, Taiwanese people will choose a national ideology. It is not an election about which side will be economically richer, but a choice between liberal democracy and Chinese-style socialism.
What the young people of Taiwan saw was a marching band, which is just a part of a high school club activity, displaying overwhelming musical ability, and proudly performing at a ceremony attended by the president of another country. Taiwanese people seemed surprised by this. The question is whether it will be a liberal democracy where talent flourishes freely or a socialism that is embraced by Xi Jinping's plump belly.
The lowering of the voting age in Taiwan to 18 years old in March 2022 also has a lot to do with this. Taiwanese high school students of the same generation as the Orange Devil will head to the polls in 2024. The fact that it has become so popular means President Tsai Ing-wen's production was a great success. President Tsai Ing-wen is much smarter than Xi Jinping. By the way, if you paste a video related to the "Orange Devil" in Taiwan on Facebook, it will be deleted as a violation of the community rules. I don't know much about the relationship between the Chinese Communist Party and Facebook, but it seems certain that it's not a good fit.
From the perspective of Ukraine war, Taiwan is same case emergency.What position should we take on Taiwan?
What would happen if we looked at the Taiwan issue in response to NATO's unilateral move to the military demarcation line by joining Ukraine?The Japanese media have put Russia and China on the same page, and what if China invades Taiwan like Russia?Is this really the only way to build a theory?Why don't Japan and the U.S. want Taiwan to belong to China?This is because China want to shifted dramatically the military demarcation line.
In Japan, lawmakers argue that if Taiwan is taken, it will be the Senkaku Islands.In the Albanian resolution, the United Nations decided to make the People's Republic of China the representative government of China.The U.S. and Japan agree that the issue of representation itself does not mean that Taiwan will lose its independence, but neither Japan nor the U.S. has no agreement on document, and has no diplomatic relations with Taiwan and has not approved it.This is the basis for China's claim that Taiwan is China.Currently, only 15 countries have diplomatic relations with Taiwan.Among them, only 13 countries expressed their support for Taiwan's participation at the U.N. General Assembly in September 2021, without Japan and the United States.
In this case, the policy that Taiwan would be separated from China, recognized independently, established diplomatic relations, and signed a treaty with allies are similar to Russia's plan to protect Lugansk and Donetsk.On the contrary, China, like Ukraine, will criticize the U.S. and Japan and send defense forces.In other words, we are sitting on the Russian side of the Taiwan issue.
Originally, Ukraine was considered a Taiwan issue, but it was a military demarcation line issue before the issue of national sovereignty.Past history has shown that unilateral changes in the military demarcation line could lead to war.What China wants to do is take over Taiwan and change the military demarcation line significantly.If NATO is in this situation, how can it defend Taiwan militarily?
It goes without saying that Japan must cooperate with the U.S. to face China in order to defend Taiwan.We need to make it clear that we will not allow changes to the military demarcation line.
Although the United States don't save Ukraine, will the United States save Taiwan?Taiwan's more complicated problem than Ukraine's
There was a question mark on how the Ukraine issue would affect the Taiwan issue and whether the U.S. would send U.S. troops to defend Taiwan if China advanced to Taiwan.Where does Ukraine belong? Ukraine is an independent country independent of the former Soviet Union in 1991.Is Taiwan independent or where does it belong?Taiwan was incorporated into Japan after the Sino-Japanese War and came under Japanese rule.It existed as Japan for 50 years until the end of World War II.Under the San Francisco Peace Treaty, Taiwan will be returned.It is unclear where it was returned.It only says that Japan renounces Taiwan.After the civil war, the Communist Party of China ruled the mainland and the government of the Republic of China fled to Taiwan.In 1949, the Communist Party of China established the People's Republic of China.This was established as a different government from the Republic of China.Since the San Francisco Peace Conference was held in 1951, the international community has not determined which government is more legitimate at this time, so the two governments have not participated in the peace conference.
The United Nations has been established as a coalition of victorious countries in World War II.China's representation was held by the Republic of China as a permanent member, but the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China will compete for representation.China's representative government was recognized as the People's Republic of China by the U.N. resolution in 1971, and the Republic of China will withdraw from the U.N.Japan and the United States had diplomatic relations with the Republic of China, but Japan established diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China in 1972 and broke off diplomatic relations with the Republic of China.Since President Nixon's surprise visit to China in 1971, the United States established diplomatic relations with China in 1979 and severed diplomatic relations with Taiwan.
China now claims that Taiwan belongs to China because Japan had renounced Taiwan.However, there are many objections whether the U.N. resolution on Albania is interpreted as a matter of representation and determination to belong to Taiwan.If Taiwan was returned to the Republic of China, the Republic of China is Taiwan.Therefore, Taiwan insists that Taiwan is the successor to the Republic of China, while China insists that the People's Republic of China is the successor to the Republic of China.Now that we've come this far, it is hard to find a way at all, but the conclusion is that Ukraine's independence is much simpler.
Japan and the United States ,and the majority of countries do not have diplomatic relations with Taiwan. Contain with Japan and the United States and the majority of countries, the United Nations has ambiguoused Taiwan's attribution for long time.
