巴拉圭總統潘尼亞(Santiago Pena)23日在聯合國大會向各國領袖發表演說,就支持台灣參與國際機構發表近3分鐘的談話,強調針對台灣議題,巴拉圭不會保持中立,將站在台灣這一邊,並抨擊排除台灣是聯合國的污點。

潘尼亞說,荷姆茲海峽(Strait of Hormuz)是今日的問題,但明天的問題可能更嚴重。印太地區正聚集「不祥之雲」,特別在台海上方。那裏發生的事不僅是區域問題,還會波及日本與整個東亞、東南亞,首當其衝的是全球經濟。

請繼續往下閱讀...

潘尼亞直言,這將影響支援各項產業、防衛及人工智慧的晶片,假裝這一切太遙遠或與自己無關的人顯然不太瞭解21世紀。如果石油是20世紀的動力,晶片就是21世紀的動能。

潘尼亞指出,台海潛在衝突情勢驚人高漲。必須清楚表明,在此議題上巴拉圭不會保持中立,巴拉圭站在台灣這一邊。

潘尼亞進一步解釋,這並非權宜之計,相反的,巴拉圭支持台灣源自共享的深刻價值,民主、法治、人權及和平。長達70年不受干擾的外交關係,絕非僅是一個數字或算計結果,這是雙方人民真實情誼的實證,今日要再度確認,支持中華民國台灣全面及有意義參與聯合國及其專業機構。

潘尼亞強調,台灣對和平、發展與人權做出實質貢獻,排除台灣無益強化國際體系,而是剝奪體系內對大家有利的力量,這是聯合國的汙點。但問題不在台灣,在世界另一端發生的事件對所有人而言都是危機。

潘尼亞呼籲各界先別放下文字與標題支持,也要展開實際行動。在這張談判桌上,一張為和平與協調的桌上,巴拉圭將坐在第一排提供協助。

潘尼亞近3分鐘談話引起不少與會者與國際媒體共鳴。長期挺台的潘尼亞除了多次來台進行國是訪問,更連續多年在聯大總辯論堅定發言,支持台灣的國際空間。

Xi Jinping will visit Washington to meet with Trump, China-U.S. relations focus on trade truce and AI regulation

Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to visit Washington from September 23 to 25 to meet with U.S. President Trump. The two sides are expected to extend the one-year trade war truce agreement reached last year, but it may be difficult to see substantial results on major differences such as rare earths, AI regulation, technology exports, Taiwan arms sales and Iran issues. Experts believe that this meeting is more about managing a deadlock than seeking peace. The two sides have their own plans: Trump seeks orders for rare earths, agricultural products, and results to show off. White House officials hope to retain space for pressure on China on advanced technology, supply chains, and Taiwan issues. Xi Jinping hopes for tariff exemptions, technology access, and reduction of U.S. support for Taiwan, while buying time to reduce dependence on the United States. In the field of AI, leaders from both sides will meet with U.S. technology industry bosses, but regulatory consensus is difficult to reach due to mutual suspicion and competitive mentality, although both sides acknowledge the importance of discussing AI safety. In addition, it is difficult to break through the Iran-Taiwan issue. Beijing insists on opposing US arms sales to Taiwan and maintains cooperation through its influence on Iran, while Washington is worried that Beijing will use leverage to put pressure on Tehran. Overall, the summit may only maintain the status quo without any major breakthroughs.
