           关于佩罗西议长访台的公开信

近期佩罗西议长突访台湾,引起了国际社会的极大关注,对中美关系也产生了重大和深远的影响。美国南加州华人联合总会特发表公开信表达关切。观点如下:

  1. 乌克兰战争使美国通货膨胀高达9.3%.  我们应该先处理好美国国内的通货膨胀问题,而不是在经济日趋困难的时候制造更多的没必要的麻烦。根据经济学家的分析,如果中美发生摩擦或者区域性的战争,美国通货膨胀会再增加5%到8%,这样会使美国陷入更加艰难的境地,普通老百姓的生活会更加雪上加霜。
  2. 佩洛西的訪台,使得台海局势更加失衡,不但增加了台海面临战争的紧张局面。台湾老百姓也因经济制裁而受到很大的损失。尤其是农民。目前已经有很多的农民出来抗议不满台湾执政党的决定让佩洛西访台,因为很多依赖出口大陆市场的生鲜水果被滞留在港口,甚至被制裁遭直接退货。大部分的台湾老百姓不认为佩罗西的这一次访台给台湾带来了任何好处。
  3. 在1972 美国承认一个中国。不管是台湾或是大陆,他们都属于中国的领土。既然美国相信一个中国的原则,就应该降低给台湾执政党一丝的台独希望。而不是在这个关键时刻去访台.
  4. 美国的新闻自由,让我们可以第一时间看到全世界尤其是大部分欧洲国家对这次佩罗西访台的直接反映,这一次的佩罗西訪台,全世界只有美国和日本谴责中国,其他国家所发出的声明以及释放出的信号,都是希望全世界都以台海的安全为出发点,和平理性处理各种现有矛盾,而不是刻意去制造冲突。 由此可见大部分的国家领导都不認可佩洛西这一次的访台。
  5. 根据民主党重量级参议员、前驻中国大使 Max Baucus最近发表声明的内容可以清楚的看到,他也非常反对佩洛西访台的决定。他认为这是一个鲁莽且不负责任的行为,他不是一般的访客,强调以个人的身份去访台是不符合实际情况的,身为议长,也是美国的第三号人物,不应该如此轻率的决定访台而人为制造出台海的紧张局面。也让中国政府别无选择地采取攻击报复行动,台湾的前途也被加快纳入到不确定的轨道上来。
  6. 由于佩洛西的访台,直接对中美两国的关系也带来了一系列的沟通障碍,作为引领世界的两个超级大国,这种障碍是非常可怕和危险的,也会对中美之间的关系带来负面的影响。

Open Letter on Speaker Pelosi's Visit to Taiwan

Speaker Pelosi's recent sudden visit to Taiwan provoked tremendous attention from the international communities and significant impact on US-China relations. As one of the largest Chinese associations in Southern California, the Chinese American Federation (CAF) expressed severe concern and issued an open letter as well as letters to Congresswoman Judy Chu and Congressman Ted Lieu, hoping that they would express their views to Congress from the perspective of safeguarding the sound development of US-China relations and protecting the interests of Chinese in the United States.

The CAF issued an open letter expressing concern on Speaker Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan. The views are as follows:

  1. The Ukrainian war has affected the United States inflation reaching a high of 9.3%. We should prioritize dealing with the inflation issue in the United States rather than creating more unnecessary problems when the economy is already in such difficult situation. According to the analysis of economists, friction between the United States and China or having a regional war will increase inflation in the United States by another 5% to 8%. United States will fall into a more difficult circumstance and the people living in the United States will suffer even more in such economy situation.
  2. Pelosi's visit to Taiwan has made the situation in the Taiwan Strait even more unbalanced. It not only increased the tension in facing of war in the Taiwan Strait, furthermore, the common people in Taiwan, especially local farmers, have also suffered great losses due to the economic sanctions. Currently, many farmers have publicly spoken in protesting against the decision of the ruling party in Taiwan to have allowed Pelosi’s visit because the fresh produce that relied on the mainland market have been stranded at the port, directly returned, or even discontinued.  Most people in Taiwan do not think Pelosi's visit has brought any benefits to Taiwan.
  3. In 1972, the United States recognized one China. Taiwan and the mainland are all among China's territory. Since the United States believes in the one-China principle, it should avoid any hope of Taiwan independence for the ruling party in Taiwan rather than visiting Taiwan at this critical moment.
  4. The freedom of the media in the United States allows us to see the immediate and direct global responses, especially European countries, to Pelosi's visit to Taiwan. Globally, only the United States and Japan condemn China. Statements and signals sent by other countries are all in hoping to emphasize on the security of the Taiwan Strait as the starting point, and to handle various existing conflicts peacefully and rationally, rather than deliberately creating conflicts. Thus, most national leaders do not acknowledge Pelosi's visit to Taiwan.
  5. According to the recent statement by the Democratic Senator and former Ambassador to China, Max Baucus also opposes Speaker Pelosi's decision to visit Taiwan. He views this being a reckless and irresponsible act as Speaker Pelosi is not an ordinary visitor. Visiting Taiwan in her personal capacity artificially created a tense situation in Taiwan Strait. It also leaves the Chinese government no choice but to take retaliatory actions, and Taiwan's future has also been accelerated into an uncertain track.
  6. As a result of Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, a series of communication obstacles have also been created directly between the United States and China. As two superpowers leading the world, such obstacles are extremely terrifying and dangerous, and will also significantly and negatively impact the relationship between the two countries.
