Saturday si sono tenute sull'isola le elezioni volte a rinnovare lo Yuan Legislativo , ossia il parlamento di Taiwan. Come ampiamente descritto da alcune agenzie di stampa e testate giornalistiche, la vittoria รจ andata a larga maggioranza al Kuomintang , il partito nazionalista.
L'imperiosa vittoria degli eredi di Chiang Kai-shiek ha avuto come conseguenza immediata le dimissioni da leader del Partito Democratico Progressista del Presidente uscente Chen Shui-bian .
In molti, sia a Taiwan che fuori, interpretano questo risultato come il trampolino di lancio di Ma Ying-jeou to win the presidential election scheduled for March 22, all this clearly to the detriment of the other candidate, Frank Hsieh .
What to add? This
: the formalization of the shift of the diplomatic offices of Malawi from Taipei to Beijing and recent statements by the newly elected Litokwa Tomeing (Chairman of Marshall Islands ) directed to follow the footsteps of her African counterpart.
This can be translated as a clear signal to the intentions towards independence by Chen that, in fact, resigned from the his position as party leaders.
And just two months from the appointment of key Taiwanese politics, the act of the President may appear as a sort of "Lay down your arms and we give up."
should not forget that in addition to the presidential vote in March is at stake also referendum (in fact independent) which will be specifically asked if the voting population use the name "Taiwan" in official documents or to continue with the old "Republic of China" .
Ultimately, then, everything seems to revolve around a few questions:
- Ma Ying-jeou will take advantage of this momentum, or Frank Hsieh will be able to overturn the odds now?
- The 23 million Taiwanese really want independence at any cost or prefer to postpone the problem when the waters are less stormy?
Watch and wait. Continued
packages of Taiwanese allies , harsh words and warnings addressed by Washington independence and, last but not least, the economic power mainland China have confirmed Beijing slowly erodes the coasts of Taiwan without the need for the armed forces and seems closer to decisive steps towards the coveted unification, so that (despite the silence censoreo typical of dictatorial regimes) does not arise problems publish the results of the legislative website of its government, reveals that, in addition to Hong Kong , there are other places where the Chinese are invited to vote democratically.
Of course, this is because the victory of the Kuomintang is very positive for Beijing and the possible en plein- of March would be like manna from heaven.
Not that Ma Ying-jeou is in favor of a ' Anschluss , however, for China is always a better advocate of the submissive Status Quo not an advocate of independence turbulent , if only because the latter would not a few headaches in the year of Olympics . For the "harmonious" Hu Jintao , fewer problems there are, the better.
Certainly no one has yet put an end to this long history, and tantomento, is able to do so in the near future if not with the use of force.
