The general debate of the 78th United Nations General Assembly was held from 19 to 26 September 2023 at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, USA. The Republic of China (Taiwan) continues to push for participation, demanding a solution to the problem of Taiwan’s 23 million people being unable to participate in the United Nations system. "USA TODAY" published a letter from Michelle Hsiao, Taiwan's representative in the United States, on the 20th Eastern Time under the title "Stop following China, the United Nations should be governed by the people, not authoritarian regimes." Hsiao noted that the Taiwanese people were excluded from the United Nations system and were angry about this discrimination. She called on the United Nations and other international organizations to reverse policies that silence the people of Taiwan.

Michelle Hsiao pointed out that in terms of international participation, few countries have encountered as many obstacles as Taiwan. Over the past few decades, Taiwan has transformed into a vibrant democratic society, become a leader in global public health, and built a world-class economy through many critical supply chains. However, Taiwan still struggles to find a place on the international stage.

Michelle Hsiao pointed out that the People's Republic of China has continued to deliberately misinterpret Resolution 2758 passed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1971 and successfully blocked Taiwan's participation in the United Nations. The resolution did not mention Taiwan once, nor did it authorize its exclusion from the international stage. Last month, the Central American Congress (PARLACEN) improperly invoked UN General Assembly Resolution 2758 to allow CCP China to replace Taiwan as a permanent observer, highlighting Beijing's growing influence in Latin America.

Michelle Hsiao also said that the recent covid epidemic highlighted that the World Health Organization (WHO) should be more inclusive. However, due to China's political interference, Taiwanese experts have continued to be banned from participating in the annual World Health Assembly (WHA) and WHO related meetings. In addition, CCP China has fabricated the legal basis for Taiwan's sovereignty within the United Nations, and even Taiwanese journalists and tourists are barred from entering United Nations agencies. The people of Taiwan are angry at this kind of discrimination, and therefore there is an urgent need to stop misinterpreting UN General Assembly Resolution 2758. This move not only undermines the rule of law in the United Nations, but also silences the people of Taiwan.

Michelle Hsiao called on the United Nations to remember that it should be governed by all people and not become a tool of authoritarian regimes. As the preamble to its charter declares, "We the peoples of the United Nations do hereby resolve... to reaffirm our faith in fundamental human rights." The legitimacy and moral authority of the United Nations in exercising its power can only be legitimate with the consent of the people affected by its power.

Michelle Hsiao also praised that the United States supports Taiwan's meaningful participation in the United Nations and opposes Beijing's attempts to reinterpret UN General Assembly Resolution 2758. In addition, this summer, the U.S. House of Representatives also passed the "Taiwan International Solidarity Act" to support Taiwan's participation in international organizations. On Monday (18 September 2023), when the foreign ministers of the "Group of Seven Major Industrial Countries" (G7) visited New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly, Japanese Foreign Minister Yoko Kamikawa issued a presidential statement on behalf of the G7 foreign ministers, calling for support for Taiwan's participation in the international community and allowing Taiwan to participate in the international community. The world is concerned about Communist China's coercive actions in the Indo-Pacific region, and the statement reiterated "the importance of peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait."

Michelle Hsiao said that as a force for good in the world, Taiwan is constantly pragmatic and trying to find opportunities to make contributions, and works closely with partners who are willing to support Taiwan's meaningful participation on a pragmatic basis. The most eye-catching example is "global cooperation and Global Cooperation and Training Framework (GCTF), co-sponsored by Taiwan, the United States, Australia, and Japan. Through this platform, participating countries apply their own expertise on international issues and learn from each other.

Finally, Michelle Hsiao emphasized that Taiwan is ready and willing to share its own professional knowledge and experience with the world, but only if it has the opportunity. We hope that the United Nations and other international organizations will revise their policies towards Taiwan as soon as possible and give the Taiwanese people equal opportunities to participate. Taiwan will also continue to demonstrate that a democratic government run by the people and for the people can firmly defend the freedom and human rights of all people.

The general debate of the 78th United Nations General Assembly started on the 19th. Friendly countries Guatemala, Paraguay and Palau urged the United Nations system to accept Taiwan. Czech President Pavel (Petr Pavel) continued to show a tough stance against CCP China. It accuses Beijing of exacerbating tensions in the Taiwan Strait with military actions.

Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei Falla emphasized that Taiwan has made great contributions in many aspects such as science, high technology, medical care, and development. However, the United Nations does not allow the Taiwanese people to have a representative voice in this international organization. He bluntly stated that "all of the 21st century How can this organization still shut out a country like Taiwan?"

Palau President Surangel Whipps Jr. said that Taiwan has excellent leadership and innovative solutions, but has been unfairly excluded from the United Nations. Palau urges the United Nations to allow Taiwan to meaningfully participate in specialized agencies and processes such as the World Health Organization (WHO), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

Paraguayan President Santiago Pena also expressed at the United Nations General Assembly that Paraguay supports Taiwan's joining the United Nations system. He said: "The Paraguayan government supports Taiwan, the Republic of China, becoming an indispensable part of the United Nations system."

Czech President Pavel advocated cooperation when talking about the Asia-Pacific region, condemning Communist China's military actions that have raised tensions in the Taiwan Strait and unfriendly actions against multiple Czech partners in the South China Sea. He advocated the peaceful resolution of disputes and said that "any potential armed conflicts will have a negative impact on the whole world."

The 78th United Nations General Assembly will open at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, the United States, on the 5th of this month, and a general debate will be held from the 19th to the 26th. At the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Summit meeting on the 18th and the general debate on the 19th, my country’s friendly countries Belize, Guatemala, Paraguay, Palau and our friendly country the Czech Republic successively spoke up for my country. In his speech, Czech President Petr Pavel also condemned China’s military actions that have escalated tensions in the Taiwan Strait and its unfriendly actions towards its partners in the South China Sea.

John Briceño, Prime Minister of Belize and Minister of Finance, Economic Development and Investment, stated at the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Summit on the 18th that the Sustainable Development Goals are a collective commitment, and Taiwan and other partners are assisting Belize in implementing it these goals. We call on other countries to join us in inclusion, equality and solidarity.

Guatemalan President Alejandro Eduardo Giammattei Falla said at the General Debate of the United Nations General Assembly on the 19th that as the leader of a founding member of the United Nations, he realizes that the transformation of the United Nations will lead to fundamental changes in multilateralism, and we must recognize inclusiveness, importance of gender and universality.

Giammadai questioned, in the 21st century, how can the United Nations exclude a country like Taiwan? Taiwan is a country that has made contributions in science, high technology, health, development and many other aspects; more importantly, we exclude the Taiwanese people from the opportunity to speak in this forum.

Giammadai said that Guatemala urges the United Nations to take all necessary measures to ensure international peace and security in the Taiwan Strait. Furthermore, we condemn the ongoing and sustained increase in military operations in the waters and airspace surrounding Taiwan, which endanger the security of the region and affect international transportation and trade.

Paraguayan President Santiago Peña Palacios also said at the General Debate of the UN General Assembly on the 19th that within the framework of the reform and expansion of the Security Council, Paraguay believes that the organizational and operational structure of the United Nations should abide by the guiding principles of the Charter, reflect the development of the international situation on the basis of democracy and fairness, and enhance the peace, security and prosperity of all countries on the basis of equality. In this regard, the Government of Paraguay supports the Republic of China (Taiwan) in becoming an integral part of the United Nations system.

Palau President Surangel S. Whipps, Jr. stated at the General Debate of the United Nations General Assembly on the 19th that Palau urges the United Nations and relevant parties in the Taiwan Strait to exercise restraint and seek peaceful solutions to reduce tensions and strengthen the economic development of various countries. Well-being and prosperity are closely related to global peace and stability.

Surangel S. Whipps, Jr.  is grateful to partner countries including the United States, Japan, Taiwan and Australia for providing assistance and training capabilities to improve the skills of the people of Palau. He also pointed out that despite its outstanding leadership and innovative solutions, the Republic of China (Taiwan) was still unjustly excluded from the United Nations process, and Palau advocated for this to be changed.

Surangel S. Whipps, Jr. said that Taiwan continues to cooperate with Palau on many important issues such as tourism, agriculture, marine conservation, climate, gender equality, education and innovation. He urged the United Nations to accept Taiwan's meaningful participation in important specialized agencies and processes such as the "World Health Organization" Organization" (WHO), "International Civil Aviation Organization" (ICAO) and "United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change" (UNFCCC), etc.

Surangel S. Whipps, Jr. emphasized that the 23 million Taiwanese people can make many contributions to the world. The United Nations Charter confirms that all people and countries enjoy equal rights. We urge the United Nations to implement this vision and embrace Taiwan’s participation and contributions.

Pavel emphasized at the General Debate of the UN General Assembly on the 19th that the Czech Republic is an active and reliable ally and partner in the Asia-Pacific region, and "cooperation" must continue to be the keyword for our joint efforts in the region. We condemn Communist China’s military actions that raise tensions in the Taiwan Strait and its unfriendly actions toward its partners in the South China Sea. Any dispute or dispute must be resolved through peaceful means; any potential armed conflict in the region will have negative consequences for the world.

Paraguay, the Republic of China (Taiwan)'s only friendly country in South America, stated at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on the 19th local time that Paraguay supports Taiwan's joining the United Nations system.

According to Reuters, Paraguayan President Santiago Pena stated at the United Nations General Assembly that Paraguay supports Taiwan's joining the United Nations system. He said: "The Paraguayan government supports Taiwan, the Republic of China, becoming an indispensable part of the United Nations system."

The report pointed out that Paraguay is the last South American country to have formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan. The United Nations General Assembly passed Resolution 2758 in 1971, and the People's Republic of China was recognized as China's legitimate representative in the United Nations. Taiwan was therefore excluded from the United Nations system.

When asked about the Taiwan issue last week, United Nations Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed once stated that excluding anyone will hinder the achievement of global development goals. She emphasized, "Everyone is important, whether it is Taiwan or elsewhere, and I think member states need to find ways to ensure that they are not in a position to exclude others in a situation of exclusion." However, she also admitted that it would be "very difficult" for Taiwan to join the organization.

In response to climate change, Lai Ching-te mentioned that since the Tsai Ing-wen administration took office, Taiwan has doubled its renewable energy production, significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and adopted various measures to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Lai also mentioned that Taiwan's scientific and technological strength is also driving innovation in various energy-saving technology fields such as electric vehicles, energy-saving buildings, and advanced waste management systems, and said that Taiwan is very willing to share these achievements in the field of innovation with the world.

On public health issues, Lai Ching-te pointed out that Taiwan has a world-class health care system and a booming biotech industry, and it also plays a global leader in medical innovation.

Ally in political crisis! Brazilian President: Guatemala faces coup risk

Brazilian President Luis Inácio Lula da Silva delivered a speech at the United Nations General Assembly on the 19th, warning that a coup might occur in Guatemala. After Guatemala's election last month, the United States pointed out that the country's democracy "faces huge risks."

According to Reuters, Lula said at the United Nations General Assembly: "There is a risk of a coup in Guatemala that will prevent the winner of the democratic election from taking office."

Guatemala's Supreme Prosecutor's Office raided the country's electoral body last week and forcibly opened sealed ballots. President-elect Bernardo Arevalo and his party "Semilla", who advocated "anti-corruption" demands, won the general election held last month with an overwhelming vote.

Guatemalan prosecutors claimed that members of the "Seed Party" had registered irregularities before the vote, but the party firmly denied all accusations. Francisco Mora, the U.S. ambassador to the Organization of American States, urged the Guatemalan authorities on the 18th to stop their "intimidation campaign" against election officials and Arevalo's party.

Mora blasted the raid by the "Supreme Prosecutor's Office" as an "attack on the rule of law".

Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei delivered a speech at the United Nations on the 19th, criticizing "unnecessary foreign interference" in the election and reaffirming his commitment to "peaceful transfer of power."

"The facts are contrary to the narratives heard today that lack truth. I will hand over power at the end of my constitutional term on January 14 to the candidate chosen by the sovereign will of the majority of the Guatemalan people," Giammattei said.

Arevalo announced last week that he had suspended his participation in the country's power transition until "the necessary institutional and political conditions are re-established."

Brazilian President Lula issued a warning about the political situation in Guatemala this time, which was unexpectedly consistent with Washington's tone. Lula often expressed views that were at odds with the U.S. position, including blaming the United Nations Security Council for the Russia-Ukraine war.

During his visit to the United States, Kuomintang presidential candidate Hou You-ih accepted an exclusive interview with Bloomberg. The content of the interview was made publicon 21 September 2023. In addition to mentioning restoring relations with CCP China and increasing Taiwan’s defense budget, the reporter also asked Hou You-ih whether he would meet with CCP President Xi Jinping if he was elected president. Hou said, "What the two sides of the Taiwan Strait need most now is stable relations before seeking dialogue with Beijing."

According to the "Bloomberg" report, Hou You-ih said in an exclusive interview on the 16th that his decades of police experience make him the best candidate to take charge of the most dangerous Taiwanese president in global geopolitics. "I have participated in countless gun battles. On the front line. When we are rescuing hostages and facing adversaries, we often tell ourselves that while attacking and defending, we must also engage in dialogue and negotiation." When asked about his views on the "1992 Consensus," he said, "I have the responsibility to protect the lives of 23 million people and ensure the sustainable prosperity of this land."

In addition, Bloomberg also asked Hou You-ih if he is elected, "Will he meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping like former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou?" Hou You-ih said, "What the two sides of the Taiwan Strait need most now is stable relations. For this, Taiwan must "First improve its own defense capabilities, and then seek dialogue with Beijing." He also pointed out that "the situation at that time (during Ma Ying-jeou's time) was completely different from now. At this stage, Taiwan is facing constant conflicts and it is easy for conflicts to occur, causing war.”

DPP questioned Hou You-ih's plagiarism of Cai Lai's cross-strait discussion. Hou responded: Green is good at plagiarism and it is difficult to compare with him

It is rumoured that DPP Secretary-General Xu Liming criticized Kuomintang presidential candidate Hou You-ih for making a gaffe that attracted the most attention during his visit to the United States. He also plagiarized the cross-strait remarks of President Tsai Ing-wen and DPP presidential candidate Lai Ching-te. Hou Ban on 21 September counterattacked, saying that Hou You-ih's "3D strategy" is based on resolutely safeguarding the sovereign status of the Republic of China and building peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. It is very different from Lai Ching-te's Taiwan independence. How can we copy it? On the other hand, people in the green camp plagiarize papers and political opinions. "Plagiarism" is the specialty of the DPP, and it is difficult for others to match it.

Hou spokesman Chen Bohan said that when it comes to plagiarism, there have been cases of Executive Yuan Vice President Zheng Wencan and former Hsinchu Mayor Lin Zhijian. Later, former legislator Jiang Jian'an had his degree revoked for plagiarism. Recently, Hou You-ih's abolition of the Pap scale, political ideas such as free national health insurance for the elderly were immediately plagiarized and used by the Democratic Progressive Party government, without citing the source like the paper. The Democratic Progressive Party is the "well-known plagiarism king." To counter-accuse Hou You-ih of plagiarizing his argument is simply ridiculous.

Chen Bohan pointed out that Hou You-ih proposed the "3D Strategy" in the United States, and his discussion was recognized and supported by many American academics and politicians. On the other hand, Tsai Ing-wen's "Four Persistences" or Lai Ching-te's "Four Pillars" are empty slogans and have not complied with the norms or spirit of the Constitution of the Republic of China.

Chen Bohan said that Lai Ching-te has always regarded himself as a "pragmatic Taiwan independence worker" and has become a destabilizing factor in the situation across the Taiwan Strait. No wonder there is "doubt theory" in the international community. Hou Youyi firmly opposes one country, two systems and Taiwan independence. How can he plagiarize the DPP's insistence on Taiwan independence?

Before the Asian Games in Hangzhou, Xi Jinping visited Yiwu, and the security layout attracted attention

Reporter : Ning Haizhong / Editor : Li Qiong / https://www.epochtimes.com/gb/23/9/21/n14078126.htm Image : On 20 September 2023, it was reported online that Xi Jinping was inspecting Yiwu, Zhejiang Province, and the person in the red circle was suspected to be Xi Jinping. (Video screenshot)

杭州亚运前 习近平访义乌 安保布局引关注

On 23 September 2023, the Asian Games will open in Hangzhou. On 20 September, a video purportedly showing Xi Jinping inspecting Yiwu, Zhejiang was posted online. According to the news, local roads were closed, Tesla was restricted from the roads, and sewer covers on the roads were also locked. In the afternoon of the 21st, the official announced the news of Xi Jinping’s visit to Yiwu.

The Xinhua News Agency of the Communist Party of China issued a message on the afternoon of the 21st that in the morning of the 20th, Xi Jinping inspected Li Zucun, Houzhai Street, Yiwu, and Yiwu International Trade City in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province. Yiwu is currently a city under the jurisdiction of Jinhua.

Earlier that day, CCP Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying announced that Xi Jinping will attend the opening ceremony of the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou from 22 to 23 September 2023.

A video posted online showed that Xi Jinping inspected Yiwu International Trade City on the 20th and walked through the streets surrounded by security guards. Xi Jinping waved to the "people" next to him as he walked. The video was shot from a distance.

There are also videos showing that temporary traffic control was implemented on some road sections in Yiwu, and a large number of pedestrians and vehicles were blocked and diverted. The wide road was cleared, with only one convoy passing. A delivery boy who was stuck on the roadside yelled: "You won't let me pass that intersection," "You won't let me pass this intersection," and "(My) order has timed out!"

Another video showed that a Tesla on the street was stopped by traffic police and forced to make a U-turn. It is said that Tesla was prohibited from driving into the "relevant area" because of Xi Jinping's inspection of Yiwu Trade City.

Local news also revealed that people in relevant local areas are not allowed to open windows or go out on the streets. Some streets were not only blocked, but even the sewer covers were locked. People complained, but many had no idea what was happening.

Yiwu was once known as the “Small Commodity Capital of the World” but as CCP China's economy declines, so does the Yiwu market.

In addition to facing economic difficulties, Xi Jinping is currently undergoing a large-scale purge of senior military officials. Senior officials of the Rocket Force were dismissed one after another, and the two defense ministers Wei Fenghe and Li Shangfu "disappeared" one after another. The case of former Foreign Minister Qin Gang is also pending.

Zhao Lanjian, a former mainland media person living in the United States, posted a video on the Important military personnel have been arrested, and there are constant clamor for war in the Taiwan Strait. He said, "What is Xi Jinping doing in Yiwu? Zhejiang is where he started."

Overseas netizens commented one after another on Xi Jinping’s appearance in Yiwu:

Netizen "BBByt is broken" said: "I asked why the express delivery in Yiwu didn't deliver the goods today, and I accepted it."

Netizen "Lingdang" said: "I saw this, it made me feel like watching monkeys in the zoo."

Netizen "Wayne Lee" said: "Are you really a little anxious and starting to care about China's export trade, which is getting worse day by day?"

Netizen "Real Time Headlines" said: "I can't get the internal circulation going, so I'm thinking about the exit! Is this where I fall and get up? But you don't know, the world wishes to stay away from gangsters! I suggest you pretend to be a grandson and see Let’s see if the world will give you another chance!”

Xi Jinping’s travel security also attracts attention. It is said that Xi Jinping believes deeply in ancient prophecies and is afraid that he will be assassinated as predicted in the prophecies, so he sets up defenses everywhere.

Netizen "Silence Spiral" said: "You can prevent Tesla, but you can't prevent 'a soldier with a bow' from entering the imperial palace." "A soldier with a bow" comes from the 46th image of the Chinese prophecy "Tui Bei Tu", which refers to the assassination of those in power.

Netizen "Xiaobai" said: "If you can shoot at this angle, why not shoot..."

Netizen "Solid Pee 8964 praying for green tanks" said: "Security is still not enough. Ordinary people can actually see the shadow of the great leader from the window. If the leader is not pointed at the camera but a sniper rifle, then... …Very good."

Netizen "samLee" said: "If someone can comply with squatting for a week in advance and get a rifle with a scope, the success rate will be 100%."

On the 19th, local citizens revealed to The Epoch Times that Hangzhou’s security had been upgraded and they were not allowed to go to the Asian Games venue. All manhole covers on the ground in Hangzhou were labeled with security inspection labels. In addition to subway security inspections, citizens also had to go through public transportation. Their backpack may be searched, and people may even be searched while walking on the streets.

China has zero exports of germanium and gallium. Experts: CCP ban is a double-edged sword

中国锗镓零出口 专家:中共禁令是双刃剑

 The Chinese Communist Party has implemented export controls on the key metals gallium and germanium since 1 August 2023 but the latest data shows that exports of gallium and germanium plummeted to zero in August, and prices have also fallen. Experts believe that the CCP’s ban is a double-edged sword. They want to bargain with the United States, but it is likely to accelerate the transfer of the industrial chain and the gains outweigh the losses.

Germanium and gallium exports hit zero in August, stocks piled up and prices fell

On Wednesday (20th), Chinese customs released data showing that China’s exports of germanium and gallium products fell sharply in August after Beijing implemented new export controls on germanium and gallium, two chip-making metals. China did not export any forged gallium and germanium products in August.

For wrought germanium products, exports in July were 8.63 metric tons, more than double from June, as overseas buyers rushed to lock in supplies ahead of export controls, the data showed.

As for forged gallium products, the export volume in July was 5.15 tons, but the same period in 2022 was 7.67 tons. As gallium exports returned to zero in August, gallium shipments in the first eight months of this year fell by 58% compared with the same period last year.

Chinese gallium spot prices fell last month as inventories piled up in the country's domestic market due to export controls and sluggish demand.

According to data from the Shanghai Metal Exchange Market (SMM), on August 31, the spot price of gallium metal fell by 9% to 1,655 yuan per kilogram. During the same period, the spot price of germanium climbed 1% to 9,700 yuan per kilogram, benefiting from tighter supply.

Analysis of the CCP’s export restrictions: It is in vain to consider people’s livelihood

Gallium and germanium, two rare metals, are classified as critical minerals by the United States and the European Union. According to Metal Encyclopedia, gallium has the reputation of "the backbone of the electronic industry" and is the core material for manufacturing chips. Germanium is also an important semiconductor material and is widely used in the semiconductor, optoelectronics industry and other fields.

On 3 July  2023, the CCP announced that it would restrict the export of eight types of gallium products and six types of germanium products starting from 1 August 2023. This is the latest move in the escalating confrontation between China and the United States over the acquisition of materials used to manufacture high-tech microchips.

Under new Chinese regulations, exporters of germanium and gallium products now need to obtain export licenses for dual-use products and technologies. Export licenses are issued by the Ministry of Commerce of the Communist Party of China.

It took less than a month from the announcement of this ban to its official implementation on 1 August 2023 but it takes 45 days to apply for an export license.

Two germanium traders and germanium producers in China, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Reuters that license applications take about 45 working days to be processed. "We didn't ship any goods abroad last month because we were still waiting. license."

Epoch Times columnist Wang He told The Epoch Times on the 20th that if Europe and the United States issue such a ban, it will usually be implemented after at least a few months and a half year, or even one or two years, to give companies sufficient time to relax. “The CCP’s approach is very Barbaric, with no regard for people’s livelihood.”

From the perspective of the industrial chain, the production of germanium and gallium is divided into three links. The first link is raw materials and primary processing; the second link is deep processing to refine high-purity gallium and germanium; and the third link is to turn it into application products.

Wang He analyzed that China currently has an absolute advantage in the first link, which is primary processing, but has no advantage at all in the second and third links. China's independent production capacity of high-end price products is very low, and it relies heavily on imports from the United States and Japan. import.

"If gallium and germanium are not exported for a few months, and the West counterattacks, China will not be able to obtain the gallium and germanium application products it needs to import. Wouldn't your industry have a big problem?" He said, "It's very simple. The United States and Japan can counterattack from the second stage, but what should you do? Especially for electronic product components, China needs to rely on the United States and Japan."

"China's biggest capital in the past was the domestic market, which is a very large market. This is very tempting. If it is closed, will your company's position in the global industrial chain be in danger?" he said.

"From the current point of view, the West is still waiting to see where the CCP will go in this game."

Expert: CCP China’s ban is a double-edged sword

Just two days after the CCP’s ban, U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen visited China on July 5. Wang He analyzed the Epoch Times, "The CCP used this policy to bargain with the United States. This was originally a fake show to show the United States."

Although China leads the world in the production of these two mineral items, it does not occupy an absolute monopoly. In particular, many allies of the United States have the ability to restart primary production of gallium, and Japan is one of them.

American economist David Huang also analyzed the Epoch Times on the 20th that the impact of the CCP’s ban is limited. It is not as widespread as food, fuel, etc., but as a core element required for semiconductors and cutting-edge automated control, this will be An effective bargaining chip may speed up negotiations with the EU and the United States.

However, David Huang believes that "it is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, Beijing uses it as a bargaining chip and hopes that the United States and Europe will return to the negotiating table, but at the same time, it will also allow the United States and Europe to transfer their industrial chains to other countries."

He said that other countries could replace this market, such as Japan, which also has small production capacity of this rare metal. They may continue to move these supply chains overseas in the future, reducing the possibility that Beijing will continue to use industrial chains to threaten the international market.

Experts: The ban accelerates the transfer of the industrial chain, and the CCP loses more than it gains

Regarding the CCP’s ban, Wang He said that this will stimulate the transformation and reorganization of the global industrial chain industry, that is, the primary processing of gallium and germanium. The raw material mining and processing industry will develop immediately. It is only a matter of time.

A few years ago, the CCP launched a rare earth war against Japan due to territorial disputes and restricted rare earth exports to Japan, triggering a race to find alternative supplies of rare earths from China. Increased production in Australia and the United States has led to China's share of global rare earth production falling from a peak of 98% in 2010 to 70% in 2022.

“In the end, the world’s dependence on the CCP in this regard was greatly reduced.” Wang He said that the CCP gained more than it lost.

At present, China's economy continues to decline, and the CCP has repeatedly proposed "protecting foreign investment and foreign trade, and stabilizing foreign investment and foreign trade." In this regard, Wang He believes, "Now that we are fighting an economic war, foreign investment and foreign trade are running faster, and the reorganization of the global industrial chain is accelerating. Therefore, it is actually very stupid for the CCP to do these things."

Wang He believes that there is a big problem with the top-level design of the entire policy of the CCP. It cannot clearly see the situation, so it makes some damaging moves.

Judge rejects video hearing in Hunter Biden's federal gun charges case

Reporter : Lin Yan / Editor : Li Yuan / https://www.epochtimes.com/gb/23/9/20/n14078031.htm / Image : On 18 April 2022, Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, attended the Easter Egg Roll event held on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, DC. (Drew Angerer/Getty Images)

亨特‧拜登联邦枪支指控案 法官拒绝视频过堂
A judge ordered on Wednesday (20 September 2023) that Hunter Biden, the son of US President Biden, must appear physically in federal court in Wilmington, Del., on 26 September on federal firearms charges.

Hunter, 53, was indicted last week on charges of allegedly lying on a form to purchase a handgun in 2018 and being an illegal drug addict in possession of a firearm. His attorney said Hunter plans to plead not guilty.

Hunter tried to avoid an in-person appearance in Delaware, citing the logistical challenges, but District Judge Christopher Burke denied his request for a video appearance.

David Weiss, the U.S. special prosecutor who prosecuted Hunter and was authorized to conduct a wide-ranging investigation, opposed allowing Hunter to appear in routine proceedings via video. He said in-person arraignments would increase "public confidence that the defendant will be treated consistently with other defendants."

Hunter's appearance in court next week means the United States is facing an unprecedented spectacle: the son of a sitting president facing a criminal trial while his father is running for re-election. Meanwhile, Biden's most likely Republican rival, former President Trump, also faces four upcoming criminal trials.

Magistrate Burke ruled on Wednesday (click here) that Hunter must appear in person to stand trial. Burke wrote that he understood the order would cause "a certain degree of logistical inconvenience" for Hunter and the U.S. Secret Service, but that appearing in person was important to emphasize the "seriousness" of the criminal case in case any unexpected last-minute issues arise. .

"All other defendants are required to appear in person for their first appearance. This is also true," Burke wrote.

Hunter's attorneys argued that the video appearance was reasonable given his status as a U.S. Secret Service protector and the security and logistical "burden" of traveling from his home in California to the federal courthouse in Wilmington. They said there would be few requirements for Hunter, who was prepared to plead not guilty and appear in person in court in the future if necessary.

Hunter's team pointed to examples from other criminal cases in Delaware courts where defendants recently appeared in court for the first time via videoconference.

Special Counsel Weiss's office countered that while federal courts have shifted to remote appearances during the pandemic, the blanket authority to do so has expired and in-person hearings have been the norm in Delaware for more than a year.

They argue that Hunter's case is not exceptional - his attorneys cited cases of a defendant recovering from being shot and another who was unable to afford travel.

"In-person arraignments will be important to increase public confidence that the defendant is being treated consistently with other defendants in this district and elsewhere," prosecutors wrote.

They also pointed to the unexpected drama of Hunter's last court appearance, when a judge's review of the terms of a plea agreement led to a mistrial.

They wrote that they expected the next arraignment to be "straightforward," but that an in-person hearing "may be more conducive to resolving any unforeseen issues that arise."

Polls show many Americans believe Hunter received special treatment. A June Reuters/Ipsos poll found that half of respondents said Hunter received special treatment from prosecutors. Prosecutors have reached a deal that would allow Hunter to avoid gun-related charges by pleading guilty to tax charges.

In July, federal Judge Maryellen Noreika rejected the plea deal.

She questioned the scope of the agreement Hunter's attorneys reached with prosecutors, and specifically whether it was a blanket immunity shielding him from future prosecution stemming from other investigations, including Republicans' claims that Hunter's overseas business dealings involved him. 's father and benefited him financially before he was elected president.

Hunter's lawyers quickly reached a revised agreement with prosecutors in court that covered Hunter's tax issues from 2014 to 2019, admitting to using cocaine and possessing a firearm while agreeing that it did not make him immune from any Other potential prosecutions.

That failed, too, and Hunter entered a not guilty plea to the tax charges.

Judge Noreka then stayed the case.

Weiss, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, was appointed special prosecutor by the Attorney General shortly thereafter. He informed the court that he may seek to prosecute Biden in other locations, including Washington, D.C., and California.

The Justice Department notified in early September that Weiss intended to seek indictment on gun charges against President Biden's son, Hunter, by the end of the month.

Hong Kong commentator: If the DPP remains in power, Taiwanese people's lives will get better and better

Well-known Hong Kong commentator Yan Chungou published an article on Facebook on the 19th entitled "Next year's presidential election is a critical moment of life and death for Taiwan." He pointed out that there are only four months left before next year's Taiwan presidential election. The polls of the four candidates are basically stable, but there are still variables. However, he emphasized that voting for Lai Ching-te will keep the DPP in power, and the lives of Taiwanese people will get better and better; on the contrary, voting for the weak and incompetent Hou You-ih, you will face more risks, and sooner or later you will have to take the medicine of regret.

The article pointed out that Lai Ching-te currently has a stable advantage, and Lai's advantage depends on the separation of the three candidates from the non-green camp. Recently, Terry Gou announced the selection of a female celebrity as his deputy, eliminating the possibility that he would be willing to serve as Hou and Ke's deputy. If Gou does not give up, Hou and Ke can only "fight hard". In this way, there is no hope for the integration of the non-green camp. However, it was reported that the female star's deputy revealed the nationality issue, which put Terry Gou in a difficult position. Terry Gou rushed to run for president without even understanding the most basic things. He was already defeated before he was elected.

Both Hou and Ke wanted to be the boss. Hou had the Kuomintang and Ke had the People's Party. They both gave their full support and spared no effort. At the last moment, if Guo's basic base is hopeless, the possibility that Guo will be persuaded to resign and return his votes to the marquis to help the Kuomintang through the coordination behind the scenes of the CCP cannot be completely ruled out.

The article said that next year's presidential election is a critical election for the people of Taiwan. It will not only determine the fate of Taiwan in the next four or eight years, but may also be related to the blessings and blessings of future generations of Taiwanese people. The DPP wants to win the center vote and know its interests from the voters.

If the DPP remains in power, Taiwan's domestic and foreign policies will continue to be the same, relations between the United States and Taiwan will deepen, cross-strait relations will not get much worse, domestic economy, science and technology and people's growth will develop rapidly, democracy and the rule of law will be more perfect, in short, it will be a smooth situation, a situation of steady development.

The article pointed out that Hou You-ih's personal qualities are very poor. The KMT's political line is pro-communist and anti-American. If Hou is elected, it will be a great turmoil. Taiwan's domestic and foreign affairs will undergo subversive changes. No one can predict the extent of such changes. This is a risk. The situation is uncontrollable.

The Kuomintang's pro-communist and anti-American policies will inevitably lead to distrust in the West, rifts in U.S.-Taiwan relations, and the rupture of the first island chain. The United States will drastically adjust its Asia-Pacific deployment, and the security of Asian allies will be threatened. The so-called saying that something is happening in Taiwan means something is happening in Japan and the United States. It is no longer established.

By then, Taiwan's diplomacy will be covered by the CCP and it will fall back into isolation. Its economy and foreign trade will be affected, and its technology will not be supported by the West. High-tech companies such as TSMC may be oppressed by the government and transfer benefits to the CCP overtly and covertly, which will make the United States give up.

At the same time, the Chinese Communist Party will take advantage of Hou You-ih's weakness and incompetence to "dig deep into the soft soil" to interfere in Taiwan's internal affairs and change Taiwan's political ecology. Under the rule of the Kuomintang, pro-Communist political forces will grow stronger and the Democratic Progressive Party will be fully squeezed. ,Amidst the ebb and flow of the situation, Taiwan society will inevitably undergo profound changes.

In four or even eight years, the CCP will definitely spare no effort to manage Taiwan. The process of cross-strait integration will be accelerated. The CCP will comprehensively deepen its penetration into Taiwan. Taiwan’s sovereignty will be weakened. The CCP’s brainwashing project will continue to spread and affect more young people.

The article said that the election campaign early next year is a crucial battle, which will not only determine the next four or eight years, but will also affect future generations of Taiwanese people. If the Kuomintang manages the country for eight years, the consequences will be even more unimaginable.

Yan Chungou called on Taiwanese voters to think carefully and see the longer-term interests. If they vote for Lai Ching-te, Taiwanese people's lives will get better and better; on the contrary, if they vote for Hou You-ih, they will face more risks. Sooner or later you have to take the medicine of regret.

The Russian ambassador objected to the Ukrainian president’s speech. The UN president quipped: If the war ceases, he does not need to speak

Let’s see that the United Nations Security Council held a special meeting, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy  personally attended the meeting for the first time regarding Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. The Russian ambassador to the UN ambassador strongly opposed Zelenskyy's speech, but the rotating president took the opportunity to mock Russia and said that as long as Russia ceases the war, Zelenskyy does not have to speak.

Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama, who holds the rotating presidency of the United Nations Security Council, said: "I want to assure my Russian colleagues and everyone here that this is by no means a 'special operation' initiated by the Albanian Prime Minister. It is a continuation of the long-standing established practice of the Security Council. "I must say, what comes out of your mouth, saying that speaking is against the rules of this building, is very impressive." "There is a solution to this problem... If you agree, and you stop the war, President Zelensky will no need to speak.”

Russia has long claimed that its invasion of Ukraine is not a war, but a "special military operation." After the meeting, Zelenskyy thanked Rama on social platforms for demonstrating to the world how to correctly treat Russia and its lies and hypocrisy. After repeated discussions, Zelenskyy demanded that Russia be stripped of its status as a permanent member of the Security Council and that its veto power be revoked as punishment for invading Ukraine. The United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution with 141 votes in February, condemning Russia's attack on Ukraine and demanding Moscow withdraw its troops; in April, 122 countries passed a resolution containing the words "Russia's aggression in Ukraine."

Zelenskyy calls for UN reform, Yoon Seok-yul condemns North Korea-Russia cooperation


On Wednesday (20 September 2023), the second day of the United Nations General Assembly, representatives from various countries held high-level talks on important issues, with the Ukraine-Russia war still being the focus of the talks. On the same day, Ukrainian President Zelensky made his first speech to the Security Council.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy: “This terrorist state wants to destroy, through its acts of aggression, international norms designed to protect the world from war.”

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy delivered a speech at the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday, condemning Russia's aggression against Ukraine and emphasizing the importance of the world helping Ukraine exercise its right to self-defense.

Zelenskyy: “By providing weapons assistance to Ukraine, imposing sanctions and comprehensive pressure on the aggressors, and voting for relevant resolutions, this means helping to defend the United Nations Charter.”

In his speech, Zelenskyy also emphasized the need for reform of United Nations agencies and specifically called for the abolition of the "one-vote veto".

Zelenskyy: “Because all efforts will be vetoed by the aggressor or those who condone the aggressor.”

Zelenskyy’s speech at the UN General Assembly coincides with the critical moment of Ukraine’s summer counterattack. Currently, the Ukrainian army is racing against time, trying to achieve greater breakthroughs before winter comes.

Recently, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un went to Russia to meet with Putin, which attracted widespread attention from the international community. South Korean President Yoon Seok-yul said in a speech at the United Nations General Assembly on Wednesday that the strengthening of military ties between North Korea and Russia also threatens South Korea's security.

South Korean President Yoon Seok-yul: "If North Korea obtains information and technology to enhance its weapons of mass destruction capabilities in exchange for providing traditional Russian weapons, such an agreement will not only directly threaten the peace and security of Ukraine, but also threaten South Korea."

On the same day, United Nations Secretary-General Guterres also stated at the Security Council that the United Nations clearly condemned the war, and the United Nations General Assembly overwhelmingly passed a resolution requiring Russia to withdraw from Ukraine.

Biden meets with Netanyahu to push for establishment of diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel


On 20 September 2023, US President Biden met with visiting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu in New York to actively promote the normalization of diplomatic relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia. 

U.S. President Biden: "You have heard me say it countless times, if there is no Israel (in the world), we must build one."

At the outset of the talks, Biden reiterated America's long-term, unwavering support for Israel.

This is the first meeting between Netanyahu and Biden since he returned to take charge of the Israeli government at the end of last year. The key agenda of this meeting is to promote the establishment of diplomatic relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Biden: "If you and I were talking about normalizing relations with Saudi Arabia ten years ago, I think we would be looking at each other and wondering who had too much to drink."

In order to counter the influence of the Chinese Communist Party in the Middle East, the normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia has become crucial. In March this year, under the mediation of the Chinese Communist Party, Saudi Arabia restored diplomatic relations with Iran. The struggle between the United States and China in the Middle East has begun to become unbalanced.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu: "Mr. President, I believe that under your leadership we can achieve a historic peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia."

The upcoming election and the escalating threats from the Chinese Communist Party mean that the Biden-Harris administration can no longer delay the promotion of the Middle East peace process.

However, the meeting was held in New York instead of the Oval Office of the White House, which was still interpreted by the outside world as Biden's intention to express dissatisfaction with Israel's judicial reform.

Mainland China bans eSIM. Netizen: Promoting eSIM is equivalent to pushing against the wall

中国大陆禁用eSIM  网友:推行eSIM就等于推墙

The CCP has always controlled domestic people’s access to information. It not only established network firewalls, but also imposed technical restrictions on the use of mobile phones in the mainland, such as Apple mobile phones, which have “castrated” many people in mainland China. Function, the use of eSIM is prohibited. In this regard, Zhihu netizens pointed out that the implementation of eSIM at this stage is equivalent to pushing against the wall, so its use is prohibited.

On the mainland Zhihu platform, some netizens asked: "Why is it difficult for mainland China to implement eSIM?" Netizens responded one after another. Netizen "Lu Bai" replied, "It's not that we don't promote it, it's that we don't allow it to be used, because eSIM can be easily obtained. Overseas mobile phone cards make it easier for you to escape supervision. Overseas mobile phone cards can legally access Google when used in China, and you don’t even need to circumvent the firewall.”

Netizen "Mingming Wuwu" said, "Forget about eSIM, as long as it cannot locate the person/is difficult to monitor/difficult to collect evidence, it is unacceptable. Even if it has been used before, it will be banned sooner or later."

Netizen "hyy514" pointed out, "After looking around, not many people answered the right question, and the operator said it would not take the blame! In the past, wifi could not be used until the mobile phone card was authenticated. Now Apple's air delivery must be castrated when it enters China. , do you know why? If you know why, you can answer your question."

Netizen "Running Fengzi" concluded, "The implementation of eSIM at this stage ≈ pushing the wall."

Netizen "Crear" replied, "The WiFi module, FaceTime voice, and app call CallKit are deliberately cut off. Anything that has the possibility of harming the operator's interests will not be passed. The position of the reviewer is clear at a glance."

Netizen "HINSON TISING" listed a series of behaviors that the CCP has banned in order to control the people, "Remember the Great Firewall, remember DNS poisoning, remember the card cancellation operation, remember the bank card limit, and you can't go out even if you pay. , remember when wifi was illegal in China, remember that Facetime Audio has never been used in China, remember that wifi calling has always been disabled, remember that the shelf life of a person is only 48 hours, remember the trip code, remember ios The system's system page takes over software network calls and is still disabled for +86 users. Remember that WIFI-7 does not have a 6G frequency band in China. Remember that it was not allowed to be turned on during civil aviation flights. Remember that this account was banned based on user complaints. Well, remember Google. So, it’s not surprising that eSIM is banned, and even the original watch version of eSIM is banned.”

Netizen "Fancy" judged, "Do you know that overseas phone cards can be used to access the Internet in China without a wall? Do you know that esim cards can be activated in foreign countries? Therefore, it is impossible for mainland China to open restrictions. Don't worry."

Netizen "Datou Dafei" lamented, "To a certain extent, living here seems to be like a dwarf. There are all kinds of restrictions, and we are always out of touch with the world. It seems that we are not from the earth and are special in everything. Unruly people need discipline. The reasons are all so-called 'for your own good' (for example, some high-sounding reasons: to prevent Internet fraud)."

Public information shows that eSIM is a programmable SIM card that is directly embedded in the device. Mobile phones, wearable devices, vehicle-mounted devices and future Internet of devices that use eSIM do not need to be equipped with a SIM card slot, and users do not need to insert a physical SIM card. They can activate telecommunications services provided by mobile network operators.

An anonymous netizen said that if a Chinese user has a mobile phone that supports eSIM cards, he or she can directly purchase mobile phone cards from overseas operators on the Internet. Since there is no physical card, the link of mailing into the country is eliminated, and activation can be achieved immediately after purchase. After remote activation in mainland China, the eSIM card is in the "roaming in other countries" state, and its data traffic purchase is settled by the country's export, so it can achieve the effect of "overcoming the firewall" and directly access websites such as YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.
