ＦＢ卦點說明：
FAPA 36年來在華府的一些經驗知識與想法
想和柯市長一起分享。

尤其FAPA 已經在美國國會耕耘了36年。
簡化FAPA以及台灣外交官們努力的成果變成
「貨架上的商品」是非常不公平的

———補充一下———

中國一直對台灣嗆，要動用一切力量來廢除台灣關係法，但是從來都沒有成功過
人生到底能有幾個37年呢？

歷經了中國3任領導人
從鄧小平  江澤民 胡錦濤  全都無功而返

台灣關係法的轄制對像，是針對美國總統和國防部及國務院而設定的，出賣台灣就是犯法

Mayor Ko Wen-je: FAPA Has Some Knowledge to Share with You | 柯文哲市長，FAPA
有知識想與您分享

十月十八日，台北市長柯文哲接受彭博社專訪，並宣稱台灣對川普而言只是架上的商品且
必須接受自己是美國與中國兩大強權博弈中的一顆棋子。

根據我們36年來於華府的經驗，FAPA有一些知識與想法想和柯市長分享。

1. 台灣在印度太平洋地區是非賣品

台灣對美國而言不只是架上的商品，因為它不能且不會輕易的被販售給任何國家，尤其是
中共。



這就是為什麼台灣至今仍獨立於中國。台灣不能且不會輕易的被販售。

2. 外交政策的制定不只侷限於美國總統本身

簡化外交政策的制定並誇大總統的權限是錯誤的。任何重要外交政策的制定必須經過國安
會、五角大廈、國務院以及國會。台灣在這些機構都有非常重要的朋友。

3. 務必小心避免使用中共論述

把美國形塑成商人並質疑其可靠性掉入了中國的論述以及圈套。此非常危險且應該避免。
任何人都可以在環球時報找到中共相似的宣傳，例如 https://bit.ly/2NM74gE 。早先相
似的情形亦發生在柯市長的「兩岸一家親」論述。

4. 外交是建立信任與關係的過程



On October 18, Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je did an interview with Bloomberg, in whic
h he claimed that Taiwan is ‘just a product on a shelf’ for Donald J. Trump
and that it should “accept its status as a pawn in the great power game.”

Based on our 36 years of experience in Washington DC, FAPA has some knowledge
and thoughts to share with Mayor Ko.

1. Taiwan is not for sale in the Indo-Pacific region

Taiwan is more than a product on the shelf to the U.S., because it cannot and
will not be simply sold to anyone - especially not to the People’s Republic o
f China (PRC).

Taiwan is at the center of a crucial geostrategic location for to the U.S. and
 its allies in the Indo-Pacific region. In the past, the U.S. saw Taiwan as an
 important part of the First Island Chain that defended against PRC’s aggress
ion towards the Western Pacific. After the Indo-Pacific strategy was proposed
by the Trump Administration, Taiwan’s geostrategic importance to U.S. interes
ts in the South China Sea is even more critical. In a potential South China Se
a crisis, Taiwan has the geographic and material advantages compared to other
U.S. allies in Northeast and Southeast Asia respectively. Any important change
 to the U.S.’s Taiwan policy will affect the region’s confidence towards the
 U.S. leadership.

This is why Taiwan remains independent from China. Taiwan cannot and will not
be simply sold to anyone.

2. Foreign policy decision making is more than POTUS’s

It is wrong to simplify the foreign decision making process by overestimating
the importance of the POTUS. All important decision making has to go through t
he National Security Council, the Pentagon, the Department of State, and Congr
ess, all in which Taiwan has important friends.

3. One must be careful not to use PRC rhetoric

Characterizing the U.S. as a businessperson and claiming its unreliability equ
als PRC rhetoric. It is extremely dangerous and should be avoided. One can fin
d a list of PRC propaganda of this sort in the Global Times: https://bit.ly/2N
M74gE. Earlier, Mayor Ko stated that “both sides of the Taiwan Strait belong
to one family.”

4. Diplomacy is the process of building trust and relationships.

Most importantly, diplomacy is the process of building trusts and relationship
s. FAPA and 駐美國台北經濟文化代表處 Taipei Economic and Cultural Representati
ve Office in the UShave been working hard day and night to deepen US-Taiwan re
lations. FAPA, in particular, has been working on Capitol Hill for 36 years. I
t is unfair to simplify efforts by FAPA and Taiwan’s diplomats as a “product
 on a shelf.”
