Decoding the News: If the CCP Starts a War, the US Has Prepared a Victory Plan.

Welcome to the March 26th episode of “News Insight,” featuring senior researcher Song Guo Cheng from the International Relations Research Center at Political University as the guest, hosted by Zhang Dongxu.

Today’s focus: If the CCP goes to war, is the US ready with a victory plan? Are there spies in Taiwan plotting to leverage 400,000 cross-strait marriages? Li Ka-shing’s 43-port all-in-one trading showdown with the US and China a super drama? Will future CCP ships be unable to dock? Should Taiwan possess nuclear weapons for self-defense?

President Trump rarely talks about dealing with the CCP war, announcing the latest fighter jet plan, with the US media on the 24th revealing five ways the CCP is blockading Taiwan.

Trump’s retaliatory tariffs are set to take effect in April, announcing negotiations with the CCP on tariffs. The CCP is expanding the scope of the so-called “anti-foreign sanctions law,” what does the future hold for the Chinese economy?

President Trump made rare comments last week on whether the US and China would go to war, expressing that the US does not want a potential war with the CCP to be a reality, but if it happens, the US can handle it. He then announced a plan for the sixth-generation F-47 fighter jet, which has been secretly tested for five years and is set to be deployed during his term; at the same time, he is preparing for tariff negotiations with the CCP.

Professor Song, in the past, we have heard the US Indo-Pacific Command talk about deterring the CCP from going to war and being prepared for victory if deterrence fails. This time, similar remarks are made by the White House and the President himself. What are your observations?

The CCP’s infiltration into the free world has surfaced in recent decades across the entire government and society. The CCP’s “Belt and Road Initiative” is quickly collapsing, and Trump is planning to counter the CCP’s ability to expand globally through military and commercial means in the oceans.

Hong Kong’s Canadian billionaire Li Ka-shing has put his (registered in the British Overseas Territories of the Cayman Islands) Hutchison Ports business (43 ports in 23 countries) up for sale, which has become the center of CCP’s speculation and propaganda.

Professor Song, how do you interpret the US and China’s actions, as well as the CCP’s response to Li Ka-shing’s sale, in terms of their confrontation in maritime power strategy?

Trump made rare comments on the US-China war issue on the 21st, and on the 24th, The Wall Street Journal published an analysis by experts, revealing five preparations the CCP is making to militarily isolate and blockade Taiwan, warning that the CCP may adopt a “strategic isolation” focusing on besiegement in the short term to force Taiwan to capitulate. Former US Department of Defense official Hu Zhendong stated that the US Indo-Pacific Command is confident in breaking the CCP blockade, and Taiwan being blocked is of great interest to the US, and the US will not allow the CCP to go to that extent.

What is your interpretation, Professor Song? The CCP is accelerating its nuclear warhead stockpile. The US plans to set up ammunition depots in Taiwan, with a nuclear umbrella covering South Korea, Japan, and possibly Taiwan as well?

The Nikkei Asia recently published a commentary by a Chinese economist, who believes that China’s economic difficulties are not a sign of stagnation, but rather “growing pains” on the path of transformation, unavoidable obstacles in transition.

Professor Song, over the years, we have heard similar transition viewpoints. What are your observations on this?

In Taiwan, Chinese spouse Yaya, because of her repeated remarks about the CCP’s so-called military annexation, had her dependent residency in Taiwan revoked by the Republic of China government and returned to mainland China on the 25th, attracting considerable attention in Taiwan. Yaya’s advocacy of military annexation remarks similar to the CCP’s propaganda has also garnered criticism from other mainland spouses in Taiwan.

Professor Song, in 2019, a CCP scholar advocating military annexation, Li Yi, made such remarks in Taiwan and was also asked to leave. What do such remarks reflect?
