“If Lai wins, then tensions would surge before May 20, when President Tsai Ing-wen hands over power. Tsai Ing-wen is more low key, not shouting every day about 'I'm for Taiwan independence' and the Taiwan Strait is already so tense. If Lai Ching-te wins, do you think the cross-strait situation will be better than it is now.”

“This transit [of Taiwan president Tsai Ing-wen] is consistent with our longstanding unofficial relationship with Taiwan and it is consistent with the United States's 'One China' policy, which remains unchanged. There is no reason - none - for the Chinese to overreact here. The People's Republic of China should not use this transit as a pretext to step up any activity around the Taiwan strait.”

“Some may be concerned about whether another visit at this time may be too unnecessarily provocative, as partners are already stretched thin with helping Ukraine. They may think that there is better timing than this current moment to be pursuing another US Speaker visit to Taiwan. And Taiwan wants to be seen as an understanding friend. as long as Tsai [Tsai Ing-wen] receives upgraded protocol treatment on her next trip, it can be considered a win for Taiwan.”

“I'm really not sure if Beijing's bottom line is simply that Tsai [Tsai Ing-wen] not be allowed to participate. But she won't be invited, so maybe they can tell their domestic audience that the US backed down in the face of Chinese pressure.”

“The EP delegation's visit is only symbolic to show support. As discontent toward the DPP [ Democratic Progressive Party] authority mounts on the island of Taiwan, Tsai [Tsai Ing-wen] is trying to create an anti-mainland atmosphere once again, passing its public policy failure to a political obstacle set by others.”

“Reunification with Taiwan has been the goal of Chinese presidents ever since the formation of the People's Republic of China and Xi [Xi Jinping] is determined to achieve this under his leadership. But Tsai Ing-wen's position is that the island's future will be decided by its people. In her speech, she also spoke about Hong Kong's experience, which in recent months has seen the erosion of certain rights and freedoms under the implementation of a sweeping new security law. She says that should serve as a warning for the people of Taiwan.”

“President Tsai Ing-wen should pursue other options…for conducting realistic negotiations with Beijing that would lower risks for both sides. Taiwan needs some way to deal and coexist with China, our bad neighbour, since we cannot relocate to another place.”

“What China is looking to do is to pressure Taiwan - to try and put down some red lines, some markers in the sand - and try to escalate a campaign of psychological warfare against the island and its leader Tsai Ing-wen.”

“The two sides of the Strait need to restore or rebuild a common political foundation. Recognition of the 'consensus' [1992 consensus] would be necessary for Tsai to realize her campaign promise of maintaining the 'status quo' in cross-strait relations. Tsai [Tsai Ing-wen] and the DPP [Democratic Progressive Party] have tarnished the 1992 consensus by equating it with the 'one country, two systems' framework. The Republic of China Constitution does not allow for two Chinas, or one China and one Taiwan. If Tsai would clearly affirm this there could be room for cross-strait dialogue.”

“We have also noticed that President Tsai [Tsai Ing-wen] has in recent speeches tried her best to show goodwill to the other side. The KMT continues to welcome remarks that would help melt the ice for cross-strait reconciliation. The ruling parties on both sides should make good use of flexible actions that are legal and reasonable to find opportunities to resume official cross-strait dialogue and normal people-to-people exchanges.”

“A great privilege to speak today w/President Tsai. We discussed the many ways Taiwan is a model for the world, as demonstrated by its success in fighting COVID-19 and all that Taiwan has to offer in the fields of health, technology & cutting-edge science. Unfortunately, Taiwan is unable to share those successes in @UN venues, including the World Health Assembly, as a result of PRC [People’s Republic of China] obstruction. If the pandemic has taught us anything, it is that more information, more transparency, is part of the answer. I made clear to President Tsai that the US stands with Taiwan and always will, as friends and partners, standing shoulder to shoulder as pillars of democracy.”

“The DPP has governed the nation for five years, and Tsai is in her second term. Is she telling people now that all the money and resources her administration has spent in the past five years was so that the nation would join an unimportant economic pact [Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership]?”

“The list would be the latest stern warning to the [Taiwan] secessionists, showing the mainland's firm stance - zero tolerance for Taiwan secessionism. It will not be a particularly long list at first, but some infamous secessionist activists and core members or leaders of secessionist parties and NGOs are very likely to be listed, including the regional leader of the island Tsai Ing-wen.”

“I can't imagine a President Biden being bad for Taiwan. But I also can't imagine Biden being as strong on Taiwan as President Trump has been, as the Trump administration has, for example, lobbied other governments not to recognize Beijing in favor of Taipei, treated President Tsai as an effective head of state on her U.S. visits and sold Taiwan more weapons than ever thought attainable. Under Biden we might see U.S.-Taiwan relations go from great to good. But still good.”

“I hope that both sides can return to the original concept of the '1992 consensus,' which would enable a meeting. I was the one who built up this 'bridge for peace,' in the hopes of guiding future leaders on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to walk along the 'boulevard of peace'. I implore Tsai [Tsai Ing-wen president of Taiwan], if she cannot present an alternative policy, then she should accept the '1992 consensus,' which can lead to negotiations for peace with China, and Taiwanese can live in peace.”

“I was proud to join President Tsai in Taiwan last year to participate in Taiwan's National Day. In the face of growing hostility, Taiwan has stood strong and tall against the Chinese Communist Party's oppression and bully tactics. America is proud to stand with the people of Taiwan. China spends an enormous amount of time and resources isolating Taiwan, including by trying to influence the debate here in the United States. China spends billions and billions of dollars to shape what Americans see, hear, and think. And far too often, Hollywood acquiesces to the demands of the communist regime. Removing the Taiwanese and Japanese flag patches from Maverick's jacket in the latest Top Gun film is just one example. America should not do the bidding of the Chinese Communist Party. Reversing an Obama-Biden era policy to allow Taiwanese officials to proudly display their flag while in the U.S. and countering China's censorship and propaganda in American films are two important steps in the right direction.”

“Therefore it is long overdue to rectify nation's name as 'Taiwan.' Only by doing so can we establish full normal diplomatic ties with the US and other countries We request President Tsai Ing-wen and the DPP leadership to declare to the world that we are the 'Taiwan' nation, and will have no claims to territories under China's governance, and will draft a new constitution to reflect the current political reality.”
