MOFA is grateful to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken for his conversation with Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis in which he expressed #US support for #Lithuania in its regional challenges and for the country’s decision to expand ties with #Taiwan and the subsequent press release in which US solidarity for the Lithuania was described as “ironclad.” This demonstrates the United States' leadership in defending democracy. As Minister Joseph Wu tweeted, "Your backing toughens our resolve to fight off authoritarianism."

secretary of state美國 在 王定宇 Facebook 的精選貼文
定宇分享台灣相關外交區域安全消息…美國外交第二號人物副國務卿Wendy Sherman在日本東京接受專訪,提到美、日共同關注的三個議題:南海自由航行、反對單方面改變東海現況、維持台海和平穩定,另外也就記者提問的北韓非核化議題回應。
這再次證明,「台海和平穩定」是國際自由民主國家共同關切的重要議題之一,美日同盟的涵蓋範圍包括台海,美國從川普到拜登,看到在QUAD、G-7、歐盟、NATO等國際組織,以及各種2+2會議,美日透過多邊關係,逐漸加深「台海和平穩定(台灣安全)」是自由民主國家對中共政權劃下的「共同紅線」,這對台灣的穩定發展是非常正面的國際發展趨勢。
TOKYO — Wendy Sherman, the U.S. deputy secretary of state, sat down with reporters from Nikkei Asia and other Japanese media outlets on Wednesday to discuss the region’s most pressing security issues.
The wide-ranging discussion covered Taiwan, relations with China and North Korean denuclearization, among other topics. Sherman stressed that President Joe Biden’s administration is willing to engage with both Beijing and Pyongyang, while it looks to shore up its Indo-Pacific alliances.
We share important regional and global security concerns. During my meetings, I reaffirmed the United States’ absolute commitment to the defense of Japan. My Japanese counterparts and I discussed our commitment to maintain an inclusive, free, peaceful, stable and open Indo-Pacific region and our mutual opposition to activities that undermine, destabilize or threaten the rules-based international order. That includes maintaining freedom of navigation and overflight in the South China Sea and opposing any unilateral attempts to change the status quo in the East China Sea. We discussed the importance of preserving peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and the need to oppose destabilizing and coercive behavior in the Indo-Pacific.

secretary of state美國 在 賓狗單字Bingo Bilingual Youtube 的最讚貼文
第一個單字是 anniversary、a-n-n-i-v-e-r-s-a-r-y、anniversary 週年紀念日,例句是:Hong Kongers marks Tiananmen anniversary with online vigil.
香港人利用網路,紀念天安門事件。31 年前,中國發生了天安門事件。天安門事件是個抗議活動,當時中國人聚集在天安門,希望中國聽聽人民的聲音、變民主一點,結果政府卻血腥鎮壓抗議群眾。
香港每年都會舉辦守夜活動,來悼念死去的人,今年,香港政府卻說,不准舉辦。香港人就在網路上舉辦活動,用 6431truth 這個 hashtag 來串聯。如果想要關心香港人的心情與狀況,可以搜尋這個 hashtag。天安門事件紀念日,紀念日就是 anniversary。
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-tiananmen-hongkong-idUSKBN23A3GU
第二個單字是 crackdown、c-r-a-c-k-d-o-w-n、crackdown 鎮壓,例句是:US Secretary of State has met survivors of Tiananmen crackdown.
前面提到的天安門事件,有些抗議份子躲過中國軍隊的鎮壓,成功逃到美國,活了下來。昨天是天安門事件紀念日,美國國務卿就跟他們會面,這是在暗示,美國注重這件事。國務卿是什麼?就是美國的外交部長啦,大概可以這樣理解。鎮壓就是 crackdown。

第三個單字是 reckon with、r-e-c-k-o-n 空格 w-i-t-h、reckon with 好好處理(棘手的問題),例句是:America must reckon with its racial injustice.
美國警察殺黑人,全美國各大城市發動抗議,抗議已經持續超過 1 個禮拜了。美國的種族歧視問題,非常嚴重,是時候好好處理了!認真地處理棘手的問題,就是 reckon with。
https://www.npr.org/series/868567696/america-reckons-with-racial-injustice
第四個單字是 impunity、i-m-p-u-n-i-t-y、impunity 犯罪但完全不受懲罰,例句是:There has been near impunity for such violations.
菲律賓總統上任後,瘋狂掃毒。乍聽之下,掃毒很棒啊,但實際上,卻是可怕的大屠殺,已經有好幾萬人被殺了。或許還會有人說,壞人就該殺啊!但其實很多人可能是無辜被殺,怎麼說呢?在這個掃毒政策下,已經有 73 個小孩喪命,最年輕的死者,才 5 個月大。5 個月大的孩子,難不成在販毒嗎?太扯了吧!
這些警察濫殺無辜,他們犯了罪,但是幾乎不會受到懲罰,這樣的狀況,就是 impunity。
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/06/impunity-drug-war-killings-philippines-200604041319925.html
最後一個單字是 coping mechanism、c-o-p-i-n-g 空格 m-e-c-h-a-n-i-s-m 、coping mechanism 心理機制,例句是:Novel language can serve as a coping mechanism.
我們有一種心理機制,很妙。在遇到危機的時候,我們會創造新的詞,讓自己變勇敢一點。例如,面對武漢病毒,我們會害怕嘛,但我們不想被嚇到皮皮挫,整天鬱卒啊!這時候,我們就可能創造新的詞,開開玩笑,讓自己心情好過一點,像是有人不乖乖隔離,我們就說他是「防疫豬隊友」,有人不聽陳時中部長的話,我們批評他不該「逆時中」。這些新詞都能幫助我們稍微放鬆一點。很有趣的心理機制吧!心理機制是 coping mechanism。
https://www.bbc.com/worklife/article/20200522-why-weve-created-new-language-for-coronavirus
簡單複習:anniversary 週年紀念日、crackdown 鎮壓、reckon with 好好處理、impunity 犯罪但完全不受懲罰、coping mechanism 心理機制。

“Are you helping or harming us?” This is my serious question to you American politicians, including those in the Trump administration and in the Congress. As the spokesperson for the New Party, one of Taiwan’s political parties, and also a young man who has lived in Taiwan for more than 32 years since my birth, I should tell you that the answer decides our future without doubt. In other words, the very fact I must confirm is whether you support Taiwan independence instead of the One-China policy or just deploy Taiwan as your pawn to bargain with Beijing. To be honest, as you always take it for granted to sacrifice others for your benefits, it is quite important for us to make sure in advance.
As we all know, the US Congress usually tends to challenge China’s sovereignty over Taiwan because of the impact of the military-industrial complex and the lobbies hired by the Taiwan government. The Taiwan Travel Act and the TAIPEI Act are the late instances. However, without the administration’s implementation, these are only lip service. Thus, the administration’s attitude is crucial indeed. So, let’s see the Department of State. As Secretary Pompeo stated last March, the US is now using every tool in its tool kit to prevent China from isolating Taiwan through diplomatic channels. This year, after shifting blames for its neglect of the pandemic prevention by attacking China and the WHO, the Department of State recently expressed support for Taiwan’s participation in the WHA. The above really triggered my curiosity: The establishment of the US-Taiwan formal diplomatic relations is just the most useful tool, isn’t it? Why does the US not use that? Besides, since Taiwan should become a formal member of the UN before entering the WHO, why does the US not recognize Taiwan as a sovereign state or the ROC government in Taiwan as the only legal government of China instead of the PRC?
The answer to my question seems that your real intention is not to support Taiwan’s real independence but only to trouble Beijing. Just as Pompeo said at a congressional hearing, the Trump administration’s way of viewing the US-Taiwan relations can consider the threat of China’s rise more than the predecessors, which reveals that Taiwan is only a chess piece for Washington to play with Beijing. Furthermore, since the US has no will to have Taiwan as a formal ally, Taiwan is just a pawn you can sacrifice anytime. Consequently, Taiwan must suffer the worsening of cross-strait relations at our own cost while the US just plays Taiwan to bargain with Beijing for your own interests. The outcome is so predictable that Taiwan should go through a depression for its large economic dependence on mainland China which you are unable and unwilling to make up. Besides, we should even consider the most serious situation that a war occurs in the Taiwan Strait. The scenario of Taiwan military is holding on alone within two to three weeks in order to wait for the US military aid. Nevertheless, as the former AIT chairman Richard Bush said, the implied commitment of the US to come to Taiwan’s defense has never be absolute. In other words, we should risk engaging a war with Beijing resulted from your dangerous game, sacrificing our lives for your lies.
As I already told you earlier, the real threat to the US is not China’s rise but the loss of your self-confidence. Moreover, you have weakened the stability across the Taiwan Strait by inciting Taiwan to deny the 1992 consensus and intervening in Taiwan’s campaign last year, which destroys the status quo and your interests indeed. Certainly, as what Secretary Pompeo has told us, “We lied, we cheated, we stole,” how can we bet our future on the US “glory” of lying, cheating, and stealing? In fact, as you once betrayed us in 1978 even though the ROC government in Taiwan and your government was formal alliance then, it is much easier for you today to abandon us when the deal has been done.
In conclusion, as your government declared plainly in the U.S.-PRC Joint Communique (1972), the US had its interests in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by the Chinese themselves. Accordingly, since you are not willing to recognize either Taiwan as an independent state or the ROC as the legal government of China, we have no choice but to deal with the question of reunification with Beijing by the Chinese ourselves. Helping instead of harming us, you could stop intervening in the Taiwan question, otherwise it will only strengthen the risk across the Taiwan Strait and put us in jeopardy. Thank you if you release your hands.
