德國國會議員、執政的基民盟(CDU)外交事務專家,今年9月中旬第3度訪問台灣的基塞維特(Roderich Kiesewetter),9月17日在西裝上別上有台德國旗的胸針接受《德國之聲》訪問,他說台灣是個重要的國家,若西方國家因為俄烏戰爭而應接不暇,2027年至2029年歐洲、美國與台灣陸續舉行重要選舉之際,台灣海峽局勢將面臨挑戰。

基塞維特表示,中國正在支持俄羅斯對烏克蘭發動的可怕戰爭,而中國在這場戰爭中也獲得北韓和伊朗的支持。這些CRINK國家(中國、俄羅斯、伊朗與北韓的簡稱)正在對抗基於規則的國際秩序,「我們必須選邊站,並明確承諾聲援那些支持基於規則的國際秩序的國家」。

被問及先前曾警告西方因俄烏戰爭而疲於奔命之際,中國可能在未來10年攻擊台灣,目前如何評估台海的風險?基塞維特指出,烏克蘭、波斯灣與台灣海峽,這幾個不同戰場應該全盤來看。對於這些CRINK國家而言,這些其實是協同的戰場。因此,「我們的防衛和支援也必須協調,必須將這3個戰區視為一體」。

既然戰場相互連動,就可能出現聯合攻擊或聯合突襲。假設俄羅斯和伊朗能夠牽制美國航空母艦或美軍部署,使台灣周圍出現真空,或大眾焦點轉向烏克蘭、逐漸遠離台灣,事情就有可能發生;假設烏克蘭或西歐承受比現在更大的壓力,中國就可能趁勢達到某些目的。所以,如果西方的注意力轉向其他戰場,德國就應該非常謹慎地觀察局勢。

基塞維特說,在俄烏戰爭爆發數年前,尤其是幾個月前,都是可以預見的,他是少數指出俄烏戰爭將在2022年2月22日爆發的政治人物之一。綜合他的軍事背景和對相關議題的觀察,他也看到一些必須非常重視的訊號,2027到2029年期間台海局勢極具挑戰,德國必須設想某些事情可能發生。

針對中國開始入侵台灣,會是全面軍事攻擊、封鎖,還是灰色地帶戰術的升級?基塞維特指出,中國可能結合兩者,但主力放在灰色地帶戰術上。例如,要求特定國家減少對台灣運輸,甚至不向台灣發貨,或發動法律戰,加大施壓不同國家的產業及工會,以減少出口或合作意願,中國可以採取的骯髒手段多得是,德國必須對此有所警覺。

他說,戰爭的特性在於難以預測,侵略者也是如此,因此德國必須在不同情境中思考,並做好準備,也需要意識到,現代戰爭不僅僅是軍事戰爭,它是以認知戰、混合戰、國家恐怖主義所塑造的戰場。

被問及若台灣海峽真的爆發戰爭,德國會怎麼做?基塞維特表示,台灣非常清楚,就像烏克蘭一樣,「在極端情況下,你們只能依靠自己。自立自強,才能說服他人支持」,所以台灣必須先靠自己,其他國家才會幫忙。「台灣是個令人信賴的國家,且正向我們展示他們願意自我防衛。接下來,就看個別國家的決定了」。

2024年德國2艘軍艦通過台灣海峽,基塞維特在2025年的一次訪談中曾建議將這類「海軍演習正常化」。對此,基塞維特於受訪時再度表示,這個建議有何不可?這沒什麼好說的,德國應該直接這麼做,德國政府視台灣海峽為國際水域,所以沒什麼好談的。包括大西洋、印度洋和太平洋,都是國際水域,那為什麼要宣佈?必要時,直接出現。

針對西裝上所別上的胸針,被問及公開展示中華民國國旗,是否擔心會為自己帶來麻煩時,基塞維特說:「我喜歡這枚胸針,因為它展現了台德友誼,而且是我自己買的。我在柏林參觀台灣機構或與台灣朋友參加活動時也會戴著它。有何不可?」
