路透引述匿名消息指出,美國官員研判中國2028年前侵台機率正逐漸降低,但若總統賴清德成功連任,北京後續會越來越傾向動武。總統府發言人郭雅慧晚間回應,自1996年我國首度總統直選以來,中國透過武力威脅,施壓台灣人民放棄自由民主的意圖未曾停止,但30年來,作為民主國家,台灣從未因此放棄捍衛自己珍視的價值與生活方式。

郭雅慧表示,近期中國在台海、東海與南海,升溫對第一島鏈民主國家的軍事威脅,恣意破壞區域穩定,已引起各國高度關切區域最大的不確定風險,包括美日韓日前發布聯合聲明,共同反對任何片面改變現狀的行為。

郭雅慧強調,面對日益複雜的區域情勢,在賴總統帶領下,我國除了強化自我防衛,提升全社會防衛韌性,也將持續與美國在內所有國際民主友盟緊密合作,致力維持現狀,以實力嚇阻威脅、確保和平,為了國民的自由民主與繁榮福祉,台灣不會因為任何軍事威脅放棄對民主與自由的堅持。

The United States and China have left tariffs, technology controls, and Taiwan issues for discussion at subsequent summits. Taiwan needs to be wary of the risk of being sacrificed in the exchange of interests between major powers.
