[Reporter Zheng Mingxiang/Taipei Report] The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (20th National Congress) ended, and anti-Taiwan independence was officially written into the party constitution. In this regard, Taipei Mayor Ko Wenzhe said that we should first ask China what is the definition of Taiwan independence, because in the In Taiwan, reunification and independence are not the mainstream of politics. The real mainstream is "Taiwan". Most of them still advocate maintaining the status quo. If China's Taiwan independence means "doing not listen to him (the CCP)," Ke said, "that would be troublesome."

The just-concluded 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China passed a resolution to amend the party constitution, which included "resolutely opposing and containing Taiwan independence" into the party constitution, and stressed the need to comprehensively, accurately and unswervingly implement the "one country, two systems" policy.

Ke Wenzhe attended the unveiling ceremony of the Taipei Intergenerational Learning Base today. In an interview before the meeting, he said that cross-strait relations must be handled pragmatically. He should ask China's definition of Taiwan independence. This must be clarified first. "Taiwan independence, "that would be troublesome," just like in Taiwan, if you don't listen to the DPP's words, you will become a passer-by of the Chinese Communist Party.

Ko Wenzhe believes that in Taiwan, reunification and independence are not the mainstream of politics. The real mainstream is "Taiwan" and agrees with Taiwan's independence, while those who support reunification or independence do not add up to more than 5%. Most people advocate maintaining the status quo.

As for whether he is worried that the CCP's main war faction will implicitly control the direction of Taiwan, Ke Wenzhe said that there will be no over-interpretation due to personnel matters, because no matter who China sends, force against Taiwan is still a threat that Taiwan has to face, and Taiwan is not afraid of fighting. War, but you must be prepared and able to fight before you are not afraid of war. Take the situation of the Russian-Ukrainian war as an example. If Russia knew that it would take 7 or 8 months to attack Ukraine again, it would not have done it in the first place.
