Let’s look at this from the opposite perspective: Why shouldn’t Taiwan declare independence? The answer lies in history. The current relationship between mainland China and Taiwan stems from the Chinese Civil War. After Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalist government retreated to Taiwan, it turned the island into a base for its planned counteroffensive to retake the mainland. In this sense, the tensions across the Taiwan Strait are a continuation of the civil war between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Kuomintang (KMT). If we view the civil war as merely suspended rather than formally ended, then the CCP could argue that it has a legitimate justification for taking military action. Foreign powers, such as Japan and the United States, would be drawn into the conflict primarily because of their own strategic interests. Japan would be concerned about the vital maritime trade routes on which its economy depends. The United States would be concerned about maintaining its position as a global leader, preserving its influence in the Asia-Pacific region, and protecting critical semiconductor supply chains. In other words, they would be compelled to respond in order to defend their own interests. China, on the other hand, would be prepared to mobilize the resources of the entire nation to achieve its objective. As a result, Taiwan could very well be reduced to rubble. In my view, the risk of such devastation is extremely high. So, do you really think declaring independence would bring any benefits? Isn’t the current situation preferable? Maintaining the status quo—neither unification nor independence—is the best option!
