Stay alert to dangerous ‘double act’ of ‘Taiwan independence’ and Japanese right-wing forces: Global Times editorial

For the "Taiwan independence" forces, this is a desperate struggle for foreign support. The more Lai relies on the Japanese right-wing for support, the more it exposes the weakness and isolation of his "Taiwan independence" separatist agenda. Ultimately, it is because they violate historical and legal principles and lack a domestic popular mandate that the "Taiwan independence" separatists have turned to the Japanese right-wing as their "lifeline."
In this process, the Lai authorities willingly act as a "tool" for the Japanese right-wing to contain China. Such actions not only betray national righteousness but also openly challenge historical justice and international order, and they are destined to be nailed to the historical pillar of ignominy.
It is certain that the dangerous "double act" between "Taiwan independence" forces and the Japanese right-wing, at best, provides the "Taiwan independence" forces with a false sense of "security" and gives the Japanese right-wing, which wishes to revive militarism, an "impulse" to misjudge the situation. No matter how much Lai beautifies colonial history or clings to external forces, he cannot change the legal and historical fact that both sides of the Taiwan Straits belong to one China. Likewise, no matter how the Japanese right-wing manipulates Taiwan-related issues and indulges the "Taiwan independence" forces, it cannot stop the historical trend that China will inevitably unify. Any external forces that dare to intervene in Taiwan Straits affairs will inevitably face resolute countermeasures from China and will pay a heavy price for it.
