Wang Youqun: Looking back at the Chinese Communist Party’s betrayal of the country during the PLA’s exercise around Taiwan.

On May 23 and 24, the Chinese Communist Party organized joint military exercises codenamed “Sword of Unity – 2024A” involving the Army, Navy, Air Force, Rocket Force, etc., in northern, southern, and eastern Taiwan, as well as the surrounding islands of Kinmen, Matsu, Wuqiu, and Dongyin.

The CCP claimed that the purpose of these military exercises was to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity, punish “Taiwan independence” separatist forces, and warn external powers.

This is a lie that deceives the Chinese people and the world. Let’s briefly review six major events in which the CCP has been selling out the country since its inception.

The CCP was established as a foreign party under the control of the Soviet Communist Party, an enemy force outside China. In 1917, after the October Revolution, the Soviet Communist Party seized power and found itself isolated internationally. In order to break this isolation and consolidate its power, Lenin led the establishment of the Communist International (Comintern) in 1919, an international organization dedicated to exporting revolution to various countries.

Following the establishment of the Comintern, guided by the Soviet Union, the CCP was founded in 1921 as one of its branches. The directives, goals, and resolutions of the CCP’s founding congress were all based on those of the Soviet Communist Party. The expenses for CCP representatives to travel to Shanghai for meetings were also provided by the Comintern.

At the Second National Congress of the CCP in 1922, it was announced that the CCP was a branch of the Comintern. Party leaders, directives, policies, and decisions were all subject to the control of the Comintern and the Soviet Communist Party.

One significant event was in 1929 when the CCP fully sided with the Soviet Union when the Republic of China decided to regain control of the Middle East Road, leading to the expulsion of former CCP General Secretary Chen Duxiu for opposing the slogan “Defend the Soviet Union.”

In 1991, following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Russian historian Alexander V. Pantsov wrote “Mao Zedong: A Real Story” based on historical archives from the Soviet period and 15 volumes of Mao’s files stored at the Russian State Archive of Social and Political History. The Chinese version of the book was published in Taipei in May 2015.

During that time, CCP members considered the Soviet Union as their “homeland” and felt responsible for providing intelligence on the Kuomintang, Japan, and others to the Soviet Union. The book mentioned that late CCP leaders Mao Zedong, Liu Shaoqi, Gao Gang, among others, provided intelligence to Soviet leader Stalin.

Pantsov stated, “We can say that as long as the Comintern was under Moscow’s control, they were agents of Moscow, and the entire Chinese Communist Party was Moscow’s agent in China.”

On November 7, 1931, amidst Japan’s occupation of the northeastern three provinces of China, the CCP established the Chinese Soviet Republic in Jiangxi Province to subvert the legitimate government of China – the Republic of China with the support of the Soviet Union.

In 2007, the book “Outline History of Sino-Soviet Relations” published by Xinhua News Agency stated that the Soviet Union had “contributed a great deal of manpower, material, and energy” to establish the “Chinese Soviet Republic,” covering every detail.

All aspects of the Chinese Soviet Republic bore the mark of the Soviet Communist Party: its founding date coincided with the anniversary of the Soviet Union, its name included “Soviet,” its parliament was called the “Central Executive Committee,” the government was called the “People’s Committee,” and its premier was dubbed the “Chairman of the People’s Committee.” Its currency bore the image of Soviet leader Lenin.

Its foreign declaration stated: “It is the only proletariat homeland in the world, the best friend and ally of the Soviet Union.”

On the 12th of 1927, a member of the Executive Committee of the Comintern instructed the Japanese Communist Party to help establish the “Taiwan National Branch of the Japanese Communist Party” (Taiwan Communist Party) as Taiwan was then a Japanese colony.

By 1928, faced with a crackdown by the Japanese police on the Japanese Communist Party, which hindered their guidance in establishing the Taiwan Communist Party, they sought support from the CCP. Consequently, the CCP took over the guidance to establish the Taiwan Communist Party.

On April 15, 1928, the inaugural assembly of the Taiwan Communist Party was held on the second floor of a photography studio on Avenue Joffre in the French Concession of Shanghai. The meeting adopted the “Political Manifesto of the Taiwan Communist Party” formulated under the leadership of the CCP Central Committee, advocating for the “independence of the Taiwanese nation and the establishment of the Republic of Taiwan.”

After the end of World War II in 1945, the Republic of China took control of Taiwan. In 1947, the “228 Incident” erupted in Taiwan. On March 8, 1947, the Liberation Daily published Mao Zedong’s statement supporting “Taiwan independence,” saying, “The armed forces led by the Chinese Communist Party fully support the struggle of the Taiwanese people against Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang. We support Taiwan’s independence and the establishment of a country as demanded by Taiwan itself.”

In addition to establishing a parallel government within the Republic of China, the CCP supported the establishment of independent countries for minority ethnic groups within Chinese territory.

Article 14 of the “Outline Constitution of the Chinese Soviet Republic” stipulated: “The Chinese Soviet political authority recognizes the right to self-determination of minority nationalities within China, recognizing the right of all weak ethnic groups within China to separate from China and establish independent countries.”

This meant that the CCP, in order to incite subversion against the legitimate government of the Republic of China, not only initiated separatism internally but also “instigated” ethnic minorities such as the Mongolians, Hui people, Tibetans, Miao people, Li people, and Koreans to oppose the Republic of China, promoting separatism among these groups. The CCP vigorously advocated, encouraged, and supported anything that divided, weakened, or harmed the Republic of China.

From 1931 to 1945, the Japanese fascist regime waged a brutal 14-year war of aggression against China, causing massive casualties and suffering to the Chinese people. According to scholars, over 35 million Chinese military and civilians perished, with property damage and war expenditures amounting to over 100 billion US dollars, and indirect economic losses reaching 500 billion US dollars (in 1937 prices).

For the Chinese people, the Japanese fascists were the enemy at the time.

On April 13, 1941, the Soviet Communist Party, for its own interests, signed the Soviet-Japanese Neutrality Pact with the Japanese fascist regime. The pact stipulated that if one party to the treaty became a combatant, the other should remain neutral and not provide any direct or indirect assistance to the third party during the conflict.

The key aspects of this pact were as follows:

Firstly, it was an agreement signed by the Soviet Communist Party with the enemy of the Chinese people. After signing the treaty, Soviet Communist Party General Secretary Stalin personally embraced and bid farewell to Japanese Foreign Minister Matsuoka at the train station.

Secondly, at that time, the contracting party – Japan, had already become the target of the Chinese people’s war against aggression. By maintaining neutrality between the aggressor (Japan) and the victim of aggression (China), the Soviet Communist Party effectively aligned itself with the aggressor.

Thirdly, following the signing of the Soviet-Japanese Neutrality Pact, the Soviet Communist Party gradually ceased official aid to China in accordance with the treaty. This became one of the key international factors contributing to the most challenging period of China’s war effort.

On the day the Soviet-Japanese Neutrality Pact was signed, the Soviet Union issued a statement guaranteeing respect for the territorial integrity and inviolability of Manchukuo.

Manchukuo was a puppet regime established by the occupying Japanese army in the northeast of China, a state within a state created by the Japanese invaders within the territory of the Republic of China. This act undermined the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China.

In February 1933, the League of Nations through a resolution on Manchukuo, neither provided any de facto commitment nor legal recognition.

One week after the signing of the Soviet-Japanese Neutrality Pact, on April 20, 1941, the New China Daily, the CCP’s mouthpiece, published Mao Zedong’s opinion on the treaty. Mao praised it as a “great victory for Soviet diplomatic policy,” “consolidating peace on the eastern front of the Soviet Union,” and “ensuring” the security of the Soviet Union.

The CCP’s Xinhua Daily published an editorial openly defending the Soviet Union’s pledge to “respect the territorial integrity and inviolability of Manchukuo,” arguing it did not “interpret that the Soviet Union had officially recognized the pseudo-independence of Manchukuo.”

The CCP completely avoided discussing the three sharp issues related to right and wrong, good and evil, and righteousness and wickedness, defending the Soviet Union’s “guarantee of respect” for Japan’s establishment of the puppet state of Manchukuo in China. This fully exposed the CCP’s ugly face as a pawn of the Soviet Union.

On December 9, 1999, during the 50th anniversary of the CCP’s founding, 21 years of “reform and opening up,” 8 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and with Russia’s weakened national strength, then-CCP leader Jiang Zemin signed the “Description Protocol of the Eastern and Western Segments of the Sino-Russian Border,” unconditionally conceding over 1 million square kilometers of Chinese territory in Northeast China, including the access to the Tumen River estuary, to Russia, effectively sealing off China’s northeastern access to the Sea of Japan, and also giving away the Tangnu Wulian Sea region unilaterally occupied by the Tsarist Russia and later by the Soviet Union which had no formal treaty.

In July 2001, Jiang Zemin decided to split the Heixiazi Island with Russia, giving half of the island belonging to China to Russia.

The Chinese territory that Jiang Zemin sold to Russia amounted to more than 40 Taiwans. This was a grave violation of China’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

To this day, no CCP organization, party branch, party committee, disciplinary committee, military commission, political and legal committee, organization department, propaganda department, foreign liaison department, United Front Work Department, Hong Kong-Macau Affairs Office, or Taiwan Affairs Office have expressed a single “no” to Jiang Zemin’s traitorous actions that have seriously compromised China’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

In summary, former CCP leader Jiang Zemin is the biggest traitor in contemporary China, and the CCP is the largest party selling out the country in the world today.

Looking back at the history of the CCP selling out the country, any righteous descendant of China would acknowledge that the CCP is a party without principles of right and wrong, good and evil, and justice.

Before subverting the Republic of China on the mainland, in order to destroy the Republic of China, the CCP was willing to resort to any dirty tactic, including supporting Taiwanese independence, supporting the establishment of the Republic of Taiwan, and supporting the establishment of independent countries for minority ethnic groups within China in a bid to dismantle the Republic of China.

After subverting the Republic of China on the mainland, the CCP harbors deep hatred for the Republic of China in Taiwan and has always sought to eliminate it. The key reasons are as follows: the Republic of China on Taiwan traces back to the establishment by Sun Yat-sen in Nanjing in 1912; the Republic of China was a victorious nation in the World War against Fascism; the Republic of China was a founding member of the United Nations; the Republic of China had diplomatic relations with the United States for 59 years (1912-1971); and Taiwan’s Republic of China, after 75 years of development, has become a beacon of freedom and democracy in the Chinese-speaking world.

As the largest party selling out the country in the world today, the CCP’s military threats against the Republic of China in Taiwan today are not about opposing Taiwan independence, defending national sovereignty and territorial integrity, but are mere pretexts to deceive the Chinese people and people worldwide, harming themselves, their descendants, and others.
