Will China And Taiwan Return To A Consensus On Peace? | 1992 (Full Episode)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 гру 2022
- 30 years ago, China and Taiwan reached an understanding that there’s one China. This set the framework for dialogue and cooperation between both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Fast forward to today, tensions between the two governments are the worst in decades. Taipei has turned its back on the agreement, while Beijing continues to apply military and economic pressure to assert its sovereignty over the territory. The superpower has even vowed to pursue reunification at all costs, by force if necessary. And over in Taiwan, civilians pick up lessens on defence, businesses engage in activities to promote cross-strait economic cooperation and there are even attempts to use semiconductors as bargaining chips against war.

The 3 US-China communiques is one of the biggest western foreign policy disaster of all time. Best thing to do is rip them up and go back to US- Taiwan mutual defense treaty
What are those US-China communiques? It was called Taiwan relation act for Taiwan getting defense aid from foreign invasion after the UN gave PRC official representation of China. If CKS agreed with the proposal of giving up China and keep Taiwan only as official country, then there could be US-Taiwan mutual defense treaty where the US is obliged to support in full force.
And Taiwan will end up like Ukraine with 50% of their population dead. Are you in favour of that?
The problem with this program is that it didn't really define the 1992 concensus. And no mention that the CCP does not accept the ROC's "One China, different interpretations". What's the CCP's definition of the 1992 concensus - One China is the PRC (with the ROC ceasing to exist). This year KMT chairman stated that the 1992 concensus is a "no concensus concensus".
While trying to seem unbiased the CNA actually created a program which is biased by ignoring information that the CCP doesn't want known. Editors at CNA have indirect United Front connections? Or CCP disinformation into Singapore is at a high level? The country with the third most influence from the CCP is Singapore (according to Doublethink Lab)
CCP has never honored any agreement no matter what it is. Their interpretation of an agreement always changes anytime they wish. All we need to do is to look at Hong Kong as an example.
Many Chinese Singaporeans especially the older generation have been influenced by CCP propaganda and some even go as far as regarding China as their motherland. Pew Survey also ranked Singapore as one of the only country in the world outside China to have a flavorable view of China with majority supporting China's initial zero covid policy. Apparently, Singapore government has largely ignored the CCP influence operations in the country because of economic benefits. Singapore even attempted to sign on to the Belt and Road Initiative voluntarily. I am truly disappointed with the direction the Singapore government is heading. Singapore is on a fast track to becoming a PRC colony and may in fact actually has.
@@ivanyu3930 Thanks for the insight.
FACT: There is the 1992 One China consensus, there is the one China policy, there is china principle. And then there is ONE CHINA part of it. As simple as there is ONE CHINA =There is only One China and Taiwan is part of China. The fact is since 1949 the PRC said ADAMANTELY There is One China and Taiwan is part of China. And the ROC up to at least the 1970's said ADAMANTELY there is One China and Taiwan belongs to China. And all KMT Taiwan President in the 1980, 1990's 2000 until today would reaffirm the ONE CHINA part of it when they take office. And there is only the DDP president of which there are 2 in Taiwan that would not (but I think the first one actually did). The part of it that is causing all the friction in recent years (since the last DDP president took office) is Taiwan back sliding on the ONE CHINA part of it (There is One China and Taiwan is part of China). And it seem the ROC/Taiwan is backsliding, right! If you want to learn more about the matter please read my OP on my legal argument why Taiwan legally belongs to China one of the best legal claims in world history.
@@ivanyu3930 Look I am not a fan of the CCP but I am a fan of the truth and the law. What terms did the PRC violated I don't see any! Everything the PRC did in Hong Kong in recent years are within the Hong Kong Basic law (Hong Kong's mini constitution)! Fact in the Hong Kong Basic Law it said Beijing have jurisdiction over national security matter. It is obvious when you have a Jan 6 event happening in HK you have a national security matter.

Mainland China should wait it out. Time is on its side. The lack of a single mention of geopolitical forces is bizzare.
i ahve compartments and fields to study...................
The US are 10,000 miles away, do the Taiwanese really think they can count of the Americans? LOL
The 1992 Consensus was actually signed in Singapore
If the "1992-consensus" was singed, please provide reference to a source where I can see a copy of it.
@@martinfiedler4317 "consensus" has no bearing in official statements.
Regardless what you folks think Taiwan is still and always will be a province of China 🇨🇳
chiang kai shek.
China shouldn't waste anymore time. Reunification should be done ASAP. Taiwan will capitulate within 48 hours and peace will be attained.
If there is such an agreement as the "1992 consensus", can anyone provide a source to the text?
Doubtlessly, there would be a copy of the agreement - together with the signatures of both sides - available on the internet???
There is no signed document on it. It was all verbally agreed upon. For this reason both sides have different interpretations of it. How can it be a concensus when one side says "One China" means the PRC while the other says it means the ROC? The PRC do not even recognize the ROC as even existing.
@@simoz99 First: Thanks for the info!
Am wondering: If it was only "verbally agreed" upon, how can it have been agreed upon at all?
International agreement HAVE to be in writing and need ratification by the national parliaments.
Even joint government declarations, which are no legally binding agreements, are always provided in writing.
1992 consensus "is a precondition set by the PRC for engaging in cross-strait dialogue". (from Wikipedia). That's pretty much it.
The term "1992 consensus" was invented by Su Chi (蘇起), a Taiwanese politician, in 2000.
Also worth noting:
"Following the meeting, the SEF [Straits Exchange Foundation, from the Taiwan side] issued the following statement:
"On November 3 [1992], a responsible person of the Communist Chinese ARATS said that it is willing to 'respect and accept' SEF’s proposal that each side 'verbally states' its respective principles on 'one China.'"
The ARATS issued the following statement:
"At this working-level consultation in Hong Kong, SEF representatives suggested that each side use respective verbal announcements to state the one China principle. On November 3, SEF sent a letter, formally notifying that "each side will make respective statements through verbal announcements." ARATS fully respects and accepts SEF's suggestion." (Wikipedia)
I'm not an expert in international law but in my opinion if no one was willing to sign anything on it, it has no legitimacy as an "agreement".
Recent statement in a China state-controlled news website: there is only one China and the definition of China is not open to interpretation.
@@simoz99 'if no one was willing to sign anything on it, it has no legitimacy as an "agreement"'
Yea. That sums up my thoughts better than I could have worded it!
Pretty sure there is otherwise, what stopping China from taking Taiwan by force? They outnumber them 100x to 1
This is an Asian century. Asians must unite.

for china to achieve reunification within 1 year without need for war is not hard actually. All China need is to abolish the need for Taiwan passport to enter China. China need to recognized Taiwanese Identity card upon entering to China. Second is to encourage the Taiwanese to purchase property , setup business and even start a family with the Chinese in China. Finally the Chinese embassy throughout the world open its service to cater Taiwanese in case of problems happen to them. The governing DPP could hardly interfere in this matter. In the end reunification is not through government to government initiative but the people itself.
Robert Tsao (曹兴诚)appeared at the 27th minute is not a trustworthy and reliable person to interview.
In 2011, he moved to Singapore and renounced his Taiwanese citizenship. He became a Singaporean to enjoy the liberty and ease of travel afforded by a Singapore passport. For many years, he abandoned Taiwan and opted for Singapore. He only came to the limelight in Singapore in 2022 after he donated millions of dollars to Taiwan. Under immense pressure, he converted to Taiwanese citizenship in 2022. Don't forget once he was pro-China but later on he turns against China, all due to his personal business interest.
I have no whatsoever trust in such a chameleon. I am glad that he is no longer a Singaporean.
1992 when Taiwan was not a democratic country and the ruling KMT decides to sell out the will of the people for business opportunities in China. Even Su Chi the person who coined the "1992 consensus" admitted that he made it up in 2000 as there was no real consensus.
I did not knew that. Could you reference an online article where this is documented? Would be helpful to counter certain propagandists...
1992年时的台湾主流民意是统一，蔡英文还在高喊我是中国人，所以才会有92共识。年轻人不要用你今日的观点去看待历史，你今时今日的观点不代表1992年时台湾人的观点。民意是会变的，如果这个道理都不懂还谈什么“民主”。
@@zzzz8949 Oh, really? Even in 1992, only about 20% of Taiwanese were in favor of "unification" with China.
Maybe you are the one who does not understand that "democracy" is about?
@@martinfiedler4317 政治大学选举研究中心的民调：92年认同自己是台湾人也是中国人的比例是46.4、认同自己是中国人的比例25.5、认同自己是台湾人的比例是17.6

@@zzzz8949 It has nothing to do with DPP. Chinese is not an identity but ancestry. Almost all have ancestors from China depending how many generations. That's already given. But all people are living in Taiwan so they are all Taiwanese.
It unbelievable to hear Taiwanese talks about the military deterrence, like the Ukrainians fighting to the last man in a geopolitical proxy war while the West applauded the courage of the Ukrainians.
Likewise, it's incredible that there are Taiwanese who are unaware that US wants a proxy war with China too, with the heavy price paid with lives and blood of the Taiwanese (and Chinese), and the total economic and political destruction of Taiwan. What does US hope to achieve? To slow down China's economic rise.
Why would Taiwan want to stop China's economic rise? Why allow Pelosi to visit Taiwan to provoke China? The one-China policy (with much room to manoevre and to negotiate) has helped Taiwan economically and politically so far to have the best of both worlds. Why endanger it by tipping the balance towards US to unnerve China?
Taiwan can have its cake and eat it too if it understands what makes China nervous. Allowing US to use the Taiwan card against China is certainly not only a bad option but a suicidal one.

After World War II in 1945, Japan returned Taiwan, Kinmen, and the Matsu Islands to the Allied Forces. General MacArthur and Chiang Kai-shek in the Chinese theater accepted the return. Taiwan was managed by the United States. Later, because of the outbreak of civil war in China, the Communist Party defeated Chiang Kai-shek, the Kuomintang of the Republic of China at that time. The United States agreed that Chiang can go to Taiwan for self-government, so Taiwan is still part of the United States, and the Republic of China is also an acceptable regime for the United States government. If the Chinese Communist Party wants to invade the American National Alliance again, then the United States will not be again. The Chinese Communist Party is deceiving, and it will not allow the Chinese Communist Party to take the economic interests of the United States but think of oppressing the national interests of the United States. Only the collapse of the Chinese Communist Party will make terrorism in the world unable to continue to survive!

6:12 What he says here is not "One country, 2 systems", it is "one chinese people, 2 different political parties governing each side". This makes more sense than what is happening in hk where it is 1 country, 1 political party, 2 systems. But will the ccp agree to this? No.
If Taiwan can sell the idea of one chinese people 2 different political parties to the chinese people who are now fed up with the ccp, hopefully things can improve.
HK has different history. Taiwan has it's history. China's last empire ceded Taiwan sovereignty forever to Japan and Japan did not transfer the sovereignty to any country. ROC in Taiwan is just a government controlling Taiwan. Therefore Taiwan and China are two different countries by history, legality and reality. China's claim on Taiwan is baseless and illegal.
@@thornados4969 xD I kind of support Taiwan becoming a part of Japan if a total war does break out.
e.g there can be a secret agreement where Taiwan can open fire at Japan's uninhabited island and Japan declares it as an act of War; Taiwan will then immediately sign a peace deal where its way of life will be maintained (aka retain its regional governance - foreign relation -etc) for 9999 years, except its land can be recognized as part of Japan in the UN.
There might be some political price for this but T____T Japan has far better credibility than the zero-covid... sorry I meant zero-accountability/credibility Beijing has when it dishonored even the promise of HK's 1 country 2 system.
@@michaelwang6125 Most Taiwanese who experienced or had their parents experienced the Japanese period gave positive credits to Japan for Taiwan's development as it was Asia's most progressive territory second to Japan mainland itself. Japanese was able to penetrate the entire island no one had done before as the center and east side were unbreakable from Taiwan aborigines. When the Chinese refugees arrived after WWII, Taiwan government system, industries and infrastructure were already well-developed at least on standard of that particular period. In fact, a Japanese engineer was honored with memorial park for his contribution to water irrigation development.
Jeffery Sachs (Columbia Univ) gave a brief summary of what the CCP agreed to. First the EU in an economic union where each country has its own government and military. In the draft agreement in the 1992 consensus, those three things the CCP agreed to. Taiwan has its own government, its own military and zero trade and travel barriers.
@@thornados4969 Most of the Taiwanese (under 40) I know, really like Japan and view them positively (Japan's soft power in animation/manga/culture worked out well)
Vice-versa for many Japanese I know towards Taiwan/Taiwanese.
One who is somewhat involved in politics due to family~ see Japan/Taiwan having mutual history where both were ruled under military dictatorship~ before the reform (Taiwan's reform under Mr.Democracy was bloodless, which remains a miracle)
Ps. There was a really old Taiwanese film that kind of says "We fought Japan so hard (during WW2) and there were a lot of anti-Japan sentiments" "But a lot of our things of value/gadgets are Japanese" (quality goods) XD

When Japan returned Taiwan island to China in 1945 after defeated in WW2, it was returned to all Chinese people. When , how and by which means agreed by all Chinese people does the people who happens to lives in this island own this island?
Where in the SF Peace treaty was Taiwan returned to China?
ps. It's simply dumb to for Chinese to "claim Taiwan" since Chinese don't even own the land which their house/apartment sits upon.
@@9thdrag0n I think that's the communist line of propaganda of how to fool people believing that Taiwan is part of China.
Their lives wont change, China will make them rich
@@9thdrag0n China owns Taiwan since its a province of China? You still dont get it do you? The land Taiwan calls their own actually belongs to China.
@@ssss8162 Only because Chinese say so right? Just like all your propertiea are mine because I say so. Lol~~~
Does the US or Singapore renounce the use of force to defend their territorial sovereignty? If not, then why do they expect China to do so?
Fact: Taiwan has never for a single day been a part of the PRC.
Claiming Taiwan doesn't makes it true.
@@9thdrag0n Wrong, they have always been a part of China. China is one country. The PRC is the sole legitimate government of China and that includes Taiwan. Make no mistake. China IS PRC and Taiwan is a part of China. PERIOD.
@@9thdrag0n You need to do some fact checking because PRC = China and China = Mainland + Taiwan.
Have I made it simple enough for you to understand?
@@ssss8162 fact: Taiwan has never been under PRC jurisdiction ever. Not even for a single second.
So Taiwan is not a part of PRC easy enough for you?
@@9thdrag0n But PRC is China and since China includes Taiwan, then by default, PRC should rule over Taiwan. It's just simple logic. PRC is just the official name of China. Your argument is not going very far at all. Logic and legally, there is only one China under the PRC and Taiwan is part of China.
Does he voted the DPP? If he don't bo bian lah.
Xijinping always want to resolve issues of the two places peacefully.
Before the DPP came to power, cross-strait interactions were active and frequent. In 2011, mainland residents always travel freely to Taiwan. In 2015, the number of inbound tourists reached 10.44 million. The population of Taiwanese living in Damu is about 2 million, but since then this has all started to decline.
Its US who is aiding, abetting, counselling and procuring Taiwan to fight a proxy war. Tactics: "goading" China by creating a situation, e.g Change the status quo thro The Taiwan Policy Act leaving China no choice but fight.
Since the landslide defeat of the pro-US Tsai's party. Philippines has become the new useful idiot in this proxy war. Talks of war is everywhere, including how useful Philippines would be "if" Taiwan is attacked. There's that loud territorial dispute of the two rocks on the Scarborough Shoal of course. Yet Filipinos seem to be okay when US annex Guam which is a more viable island that used to be part of the Philippines. Go figure.
After we fought off the Japanese in WWII, China got Taiwan island back which was ceded in 1895 to Japan after Qing lost the first sino Japanese war. Technically It belongs to China. There is an unfinished civil war between PRC and ROC. I kinda want ROC to win and come back to mainland
It is an issue to be resolved only by China and Taiwan, not by foreign interference.
ROC winning is a US win. A century of humiliation isn't enough?

i see.
Just 54% of Taiwan residents favor independence while 66% of Texans want independence for Texas. Taiwan independence gets way more attention than it deserves.
Are you a bot or a troll or a ccp worker that is the daftest thing I have heard... Japan will be coming for you soon don't forget your history
By raw count Texas provides America with the second highest number of military recruits. The percentage of Taiwanese who support unification is less than 10%. That’s less than half the percentage of collaborators in the West who support the Communist Party of China which is at 20%. Educate yourself
@@jeffchun Taiwanese dont really have a say because their land belongs to China. Just like how Hawaiians and Alaskans didnt have a say when the Americans took over. Its that simple.
Where did you get that poll from cause less than 1.3% of the Taiwanese people support unification; it probably is less than 0.5% now after witnessing 2019 HK crackdown.
My friend actually doesn't care if Taiwan is part of China or an independent nation as long as the current way of life remains - Being China isn't so bad; its Beijing's political governance that many distrust/hate. T____T So maybe unification can occur naturally *after PLA/CCP is dissolved*
A univeristy in Taiwan conducts a pole every year. june 2022 was the last one. ~10% of Taiwanese support independence in the near future. 5% unifcation in the near future, 85% the status quo. This is because China has a law that authorizes military action if independence is declared. China's laws do not authorize military action if independence is not declared.
Come on guys, start fighting already, my short positions on both Taiwan (extremely underweight TSMC) & China (The CSI300 index in general) will be highly profitable!! War War War!!!!
As a Chinese loving China as a country, I really hope Taiwan goes independent asap and provoke a war. A war is inevitable to overthrow CCP I’m sorry if that means world has to sacrifice Taiwan
哈哈哈 很好笑
你真是个大傻逼
there is even a senior former CCP internal (core) member who said what you say :3
It actually may take a big misstep similar to the one Pudding took with Ukraine, to end the regime's decades-old rule.
Taiwan is a big issue with China. But what get in the way is that I think people forget that Taiwan legally belongs to China. In 1895 China lost a war with Japan and Taiwan was ceded to Japan by China in a Treaty. After World War II. Japan lost and Taiwan was return to China in another treaty, The Sino-Japanese Peace Treaty. Chiang kai shek's ROC government who was consider to be the legal government of China at the time represented China in accepting Taiwan back for China. It is one of the best legal claim a country have over a territory in world history. And currently the legal government and representative of China is the PRC. I am not advocating war but people should remember this legal fact as a starting point to negotiations.

Wrong. "China" (the PRC) has no legal claims whatsoever to Taiwan. It seceded in 1949 from the actual China of that time (the Republic of China, now commonly called "Taiwan"). It also never gained any actual control of any part of Taiwan.
"Taiwan" legally only belongs to the people of Taiwan!
Nope. Go look up 'Retrocession Day' in Wikipedia. Legally, Taiwan is still under occupation by the US military. It was taken from Japan and loaned to the KMT, never returned to the ROC.
@@308_Negra_Arroyo_Lane us can f off and stop with the claiming of lands all over the world.
Another 50 cent copy and paster
I think a better analysis on what does Taiwan gain from the One China policy this debate need to be held as there will be pros and cons and just off the top of my head I already see the pros are Taiwan's access to China's 400+ million middle class which is getting bigger and this is a huge market for Taiwan. Also with Taiwan and China integrated economically Taiwan will be more prosperous and it can offer alot to China.
For cons, there is this perception of lost of freedom, but if u go and visit China and u see how secure and safe it is just walking around at night even the time considered most dangerous in all western countries than u will appreciate how far China has come with law and order in their society.
To cut this short, we also need to look at this from the majority of the common Taiwanese and not the elites and the rich because they do not benefit much if Taiwan merges with China and infact their status quo will change drastically especially if they are build towards the western economic needs eg. will be TSMC.
This alone is the key stumbling block for reunification because with the current semiconductor sanctions against China, TSMC will cease to exist if it gets these sanctions under China, and we all know how semiconductor industry contributes a majority of the GDP growth of Taiwan.
The Taiwanese aren’t Pakistanis. They don’t want to become just another tributary state of the PRC. Get over it already
Hope the Taiwanese people don’t fall in the blind belief that “freedom” and “democracy” defined by the Western median are the the best way of living.
@@keyboardmanyoutube9700 - Yah right so that is how Imran Khan got toppled as PM of Pakistan since he was against US influence in Pakistan's foreign affairs.
@@keyboardmanyoutube9700 - Than u clueless about what is really happening in Pakistan! The US pressured the political elites in a vote of no-confidence on Imran Khan, even before this happened Imran Khan had a letter from one of these politicians that was given this letter which is from a US official making this request to these politicians to do this and the rest is history.
China has helped Pakistan for decades everytime Pakistan needed help China was there to help and that is the reason for this Iron-brotherhood label between Pakistan and China.
But all this of course is alien and probably new to u cuz u clear have no idea about geo-politics and what is really happening around the world and u only believe what u have been told like a good dog.
@@miragec4895 - The problem is that the vast majority of Taiwanese arent very highly educated and their easily believe lies told to them and fear impress on them that China will invade Taiwan if they dont vote for DPP! That has been the key strategy use by the DPP - this was what my regular Taxi driver told me about Taiwanese politics, he is also very unhappy that these poor people believe all these lies although he dont really support either parties, but he really dont have a choice since the Taiwanese political model is very similar to the US with 2 dominant parties dominating the political landscape.
