Bush s Threat to "Defend" Taiwan Is "Very Dangerous"

  An article of Thursday's Straits Times points out that the US President George W. Bush's vow to "defend" Taiwan is a "very dangerous", with the serious consequences of Taiwan declaring independence or indefinitely extending the danger of separation from China.

The article says that Bush recently told ABC and CNN that the US will do its utmost to "defend" Taiwan, a move that indicates that the US government's policy on China has experienced a significant change.

It notes that although Bush reiterates the pursuance of the one-China policy and warns Taiwan not to declare independence, his promise is nothing but a disguise to whitewash the change in the US policy concerning China.

In his campaign for the US president, Bush announced that if Taiwan was forced to be unified, the US would defend Taiwan. This has always been an important agenda of the right-wing conservative party in the US, it says.

"In fact, just before Bush's recent remarks, US Secretary of the State Powell once said in a Congress hearing that the Japan should be invited to defend Taiwan together with the US Therefore, Bush's recent speech is not surprising," it continues.

The article emphasizes that if Bush carries out the agenda of the right-wing conservative party in an all-round manner, the trouble will not end there. Bush's new action points to a dangerous possibility, that is, eventually abandon the one-China principle, it adds.

During the first 100 days when Bush was in office, the Chinese Government has taken a relatively restrained reaction to the mid-air collision incident and the US arms sales to Taiwan, it continues.

But if the US president took China is restraint for granted, that would be very dangerous, it warns.
