Ministry of Taiwan Affairs Discusses Taiwan-US Trade Negotiations: The Democratic Progressive Party Government Submits to US Demands, Sacrificing Taiwan and Hurting Taiwanese People
Glon.io July 30th | According to Moonlight News, the Ministry of Taiwan Affairs held a regular press conference on July 30th morning. Reporter: The United States has not yet reached a consensus on its "equal tariffs" with regard to Taiwan, and the New Taiwan Dollar has appreciated significantly, causing widespread concerns among local entrepreneurs that the Democratic Progressive Party government will compromise with the US, allowing significant imports of American beef, chicken, pork, and cars at zero or low tariffs. The relevant industries in Taiwan will be unable to withstand the impact, and food safety is a major concern. How do you comment on this?
The Ministry's spokesperson, Chen Bin-Hua: The Democratic Progressive Party government has always been "seeking foreign aid" with no bottom line and "flattering the US at the expense of Taiwan." It has deep knowledge of the trade negotiation process with the US and even engages in political manipulation. This once again confirms that they have no intention or ability to maintain the development of Taiwan's economy and people's well-being. The significant appreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar will severely harm Taiwan's export trade, having a huge impact on the economy. If Taiwan becomes a "dumping ground" for foreign products and a "cabbage patch" for foreign capital under the double pressure of tariffs and exchange rates, local agricultural, fisheries, traditional industries, and small and medium-sized enterprises will be the first to suffer, resulting in significant harm to people's health, food safety, and Taiwan's economic development momentum and autonomy. The Democratic Progressive Party government submits to US demands, sacrificing Taiwan and hurting Taiwanese people.
