How far to support Taiwan?
Continued from Page 2
military response from Taiwan, which Beijing could
then use as a pretext for “retaliation.” Clearly the
exercises are intended to intimidate the Taiwanese
electorate and to quell the rising sentiment for auton-
omy and independence.
Most China analysts are confident that the exer-
cises will cease soon after the elections. Taiwanese
diplomats are already putting out the word that Tai-
wan’s President, Lee Teng-hui, who is almost certain
to be re-elected, will call for a truce and seek to
establish direct trade, shipping and air services.
But for China the essence of the problem is Tai-
wan’s quest for international recognition. It is likely
to continue its military harassment until Taipei offi-
cially abandons its aspirations for statehood. But Mr.
Lee is unlikely to do so, giving the United States a
stark choice between supporting the forces of free-
dom and self-determination on the island or those of
suppression and belligerence on the mainland.
This is a choice America needs to avoid. By stand-
ing firm against Beijing and counseling Taipei to be
cautious, America may be able to bring both sides to
the negotiating table.
Given China’s current hypernationalistic atmos-
phere and the struggle to succeed Deng Xiaoping, it
is doubtful that it will show restraint on Taiwan if left
unchecked. It is up to the United States, with the
support of its Asian and European partners, to deter
China’s aggression. The alternative is escalating ten-
sion and possibly war over Taiwan.
