江主席與留美學者視訊 期許協助傳遞台灣多元聲音

台北時間6月2日上午,國民黨主席江啟臣透過視訊和我國留美政治學者,就美國當地政治、社會情勢的變化以及台美陸三方關係交換意見。江主席表示,國民黨不僅會聽取外國專家學者的意見,同樣重視台灣出身的專家學者的意見,希望能和與會留美學者經常就重要政策立場交換意見,並承諾會在疫情和緩後,赴美當面請益。

在一個半小時的會議裡,於會者所觸及的議題相當廣泛,包括例如美國拜登政府「戰略模糊」策略、國民黨兩岸政策以及「九二共識」、美國內部反「中」和仇視亞裔的議題等,會中交流熱烈。

江主席指出國民黨對美工作的特殊與重要性,包括如何讓台灣的多元意見能忠實地傳遞到美國,以助相關人士真正了解台灣的現況,而不是被特定政治勢力所誤導。江主席同意與會學者看法,認為拜登政府將台海和平穩定擺在台海政策的首位,所以他希望能讓台灣在美國和中國大陸之間取得穩定的關係,甚至成為美國與中國大陸之間的橋梁而非障礙,因為只要有助台海穩定與區域和平,在目前對於所有利害相關方都應是利大於弊。

江主席向與會的留美學者說,國民黨雖限於相當有限的資源和人力,但一定會爭取更多旅居海外友人的支持;他在之前也與海外僑胞進行了幾場視訊會議,表示對僑胞的關心並爭取對國民黨的繼續支持。他還說,美國和台灣疫情先後爆發,他目前以防疫和紓困等相關議題為先,會在台灣狀況稍微穩定之後,繼續推動在華府設立國民黨駐美代表處。

這次與會的留美學者包括伊利諾州立大學政治系教授兼系主任王德育、西密西根州大學政治系教授王元綱、洛杉磯西方文理大學政治系教授季淳、加州大學聖塔芭芭拉分校政治系教授連培德、山姆休士頓州立大學政治系教授兼社科院院長黎建彬及政治系助理教授翁履中等學者與會;國民黨副秘書長黃奎博、大陸事務部主任左正東、國際事務部主任李大中,以及國際事務部副主任兼國民黨發言人何志勇全程陪同參與。


Videoconference Between Chairman Chiang and US Scholars, Helping to Spread Taiwan’s Diverse Voices


On the morning of June 2, Taipei time, Kuomintang (KMT) Chairman Johnny Chiang (江啟臣) exchanged views with Taiwanese political scholars in the United States on the changes in local politics and social conditions in the United States and the tripartite relationship between Taiwan, the United States and the Mainland. Chairman Chiang stated that the KMT will not only listen to the opinions of foreign experts and scholars, but also values the opinions of experts and scholars from Taiwan. He hopes to exchange views on important policy positions with participating experts in the U.S. and promises to go to the U.S. to consult with experts face-to-face once the pandemic subsides.

During the one-and-a-half hour videoconference, participants touched on a wide range of topics and exchanged ideas enthusiastically, including the Biden administration's "strategic ambiguity", the KMT's cross-Strait policies and the "1992 Consensus", as well as America’s ‘‘anti-China’’ movement along with the hatred of Asians in the United States.

Chairman Chiang pointed out the special importance of the KMT’s work in the United States, including how Taiwan’s diverse opinions can be faithfully transmitted to the United States so that relevant people can truly understand the current situation in Taiwan, rather than being misled by specific political forces. Chairman Chiang agreed with the scholars who pointed out at the meeting that the Biden administration puts peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait at the top of its Cross Strait policy. Therefore, he hopes that Taiwan can achieve stable relations between the United States and China, and even become a bridge between the United States and China instead of an obstacle. As long as the strategy contributes to the stability of the Taiwan Strait and regional peace, the advantages should outweigh the disadvantages for all interested parties at present.

Chairman Chiang told the attending scholars that although the KMT is limited by its limited resources and manpower, it will certainly win the support of more friends living abroad. He also held several video-conferences with overseas Chinese before expressing his concerns for the overseas Chinese and striving for continued support for the KMT. He also said that the United States and Taiwan are suffering from outbreaks of the Covid-19 pandemic, so he will now focus on related issues such as pandemic prevention. He will continue to promote the establishment of the KMT representative office in Washington after the pandemic situation in Taiwan has subsided.
