中國一向將台灣問題視為核心利益與紅線,堅持一個中國原則並反對任何形式的台獨。美方歷史上維持對台戰略模糊性,同時對台提供軍售與政治支持。近年來,中美關係緊張,台海局勢成為焦點,雙方在經貿、科技、地緣等多領域競爭加劇。
中國國家主席習近平與美國總統川普於美國當地時間24日上午,在白宮橢圓形辦公室進行約90分鐘的會談,會後中國官媒發布消息,稱雙方談及中美關係以及中東等問題,也特別提及「台灣問題」,希望美方堅持反對「台獨」的正確立場,慎重處理台灣問題。不過川習會結束後,對於是否討論台灣、人工智慧(AI)等議題,川、習兩人都未回應。
川普與習近平於24日在白宮進行小範圍會談,時長約90分鐘,會後中國官媒《新華社》隨即發布消息,指雙方在會談中談到中美關係以及中東等問題,同時特別提及「台灣問題」,敦促美國正式「反對」台灣獨立。外媒也引述新華社消息進行報導。

根據外媒報導指出,《新華社》在發布完整的會談通稿之前,就先發布習近平針對台灣議題的言論,凸顯北京方面將此視為最核心的紅線議題。對於習近平的說法,外媒指這是習近平迄今為止最明確地要求川普改變對台議題立場的表態,若是美方採納,將進一步助推中國在國際舞台上孤立台灣的行動。
外媒報導提到,川普在會後表示,習近平主席和他已在兩國面臨的問題上取得了巨大進展,並稱彼此進行了一次很棒的會晤,川普還笑稱中國擁有最友善的媒體記者團。不過對於伊朗、台灣、芬太尼走私以及黎智英等議題的提問,川、習兩人均未回應。
彭博經濟地緣經濟首席分析師威爾希(Jennifer Welch)表示,雖然這看似只是措辭上的微調,但其影響將意義重大,中國會利用這種措辭轉變來動搖台灣對美國支持的信心。「『反對台獨』意味著採取積極行動,遏制北京眼中的『台獨』勢力」。
外媒報導提到,任何措詞上的改變都會加劇外界的擔憂,加上川普先前已將140億美元的對台軍售計畫推遲數月,此刻習近平提出這項要求,也顯次北京正調整對台施壓策略,加大了外交孤立的力度。
布魯金斯研究所(Brookings Institution)資深研究員何瑞恩(Ryan Hass)也指出,習近平正試圖將「建設性戰略穩定」這個概念與反對「台獨」聯繫起來,關鍵在於川普將針對台灣問題發表何種言論,而不僅僅是習近平敦促川普支持什麼。
