民進黨只知轉移焦點抹黑在野 證明執政失格！
針對民進黨一再誣指國民黨操作所謂棄台論，中國國民黨今（20）日強調，國際間高度關注美軍撤出阿富汗導致混亂局面，引發國人對民進黨兩岸外交政策的深思與擔憂，執政黨拿不出安定民心的任何作法，只知藉由批判在野黨來轉移焦點，再次證明民進黨是失格的執政黨！
國民黨指出，美軍撤出阿富汗相關新聞連日來獲國際媒體大篇幅報導，也紛紛指出可能的後續影響，包括紐約時報指「美國撤軍阿富汗決定深刻影響民主陣營，指出美國可能不會無條件、無期限支持盟友，台灣與烏克蘭的感受將更為明顯。」類似報導不勝枚舉，都點出國人心中對於民進黨親美抗中路線的深層擔憂，民進黨卻意圖將國人的憂心抹黑為國民黨向國際傳達錯誤訊息所致，令人深感荒謬可笑，更是對全體國人智商的嚴重污辱！
國民黨強調，馬前總統任內務實穩健的兩岸外交政策，一切以台灣人民福祉優先，不將全民生命財產安全全然寄託於單方的外來支持。國民黨感謝美國長期以來在「台灣關係法」下，對於我國所提供的各種協助與支持，以維持台灣的自我防禦能力，維持台海的和平穩定，並主張國人應莊敬自強、捍衛中華民國，同時爭取外來支持、改善兩岸關係。
國民黨指出，負責任的執政黨在面對國人信心危機時，應該拿出具體有效的作法、對社會懇切說明以穩定民心，而不是抹黑卸責在野黨轉移焦點。民進黨拋棄92共識之後,持續打抗中牌,讓台海成為高風險地區,如何避免兩岸衝突,讓國人安心,民進黨與蔡總統才應該給國人一個交代。

DPP Only Knows to Shift the Focus by Slandering the Opposition, Proving Its Failed Governance Yet Again
In response to the ruling Democratic Progressive Party’s (DPP) repeated false accusations of the Kuomintang’s (KMT) so-called “abandonment” of Taiwan, the KMT stressed today, August 20, that the international community is highly concerned about the chaos caused by the withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan. The developments have triggered the people’s deep concerns about the DPP’s cross-strait and foreign policies. The ruling party cannot come up with any measures to reassure the people. It only knows to criticize the opposition party to shift the focus, proving yet again that the DPP is a failed ruling party.
The KMT indicated that news related to the United States withdrawal from Afghanistan has been widely reported for days by the international media, which have also identified possible ramifications, including the New York Times commentary that the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan has a profound impact on the democratic world and that the U.S. may not support its allies and partners unconditionally and indefinitely. The feelings of Taiwan and the Ukraine are most obvious. Countless reports like this represent the deep-seated worries of the people about the DPP’s pro-U.S., anti-China stance. The DPP’s scheme to discredit the legitimate worries of the people as caused by the KMT’s misinformation is deeply absurd and ridiculous; it also constitutes a serious insult to the intelligence of the people.
The KMT stressed that the cross-strait and foreign policies under the administration of President Ma Ying-jeou from 2008 to 2016 prioritized the well-being of the people of Taiwan and did not subject the people’s lives and property to reliance upon a unilateral source of external support. The KMT thanks the United States for its long-term assistance and support under the “Taiwan Relations Act” in order to maintain Taiwan’s self-defense capabilities and maintain peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. The KMT also argues that the people must stand strong and self-reliant, defend the Republic of China, and, at the same time, earn foreign support while improving cross-strait relations.
The KMT indicated that when the people face a confidence crisis, a responsible ruling party should take concrete and effective measures and sincerely explain to the society to reassure the people, instead of discrediting the opposition party and shifting the focus. After the DPP abandoned the 1992 Consensus, it has continued to play the anti-China card, making Taiwan a high-risk flashpoint. The DPP and the administration of President Tsai Ing-wen ought to explain to the people how they plan to avoid cross-strait confrontation.
