President Lai Ching-te recently reiterated that 'the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China are not subordinate to each other' during the centennial anniversary of the founding of Huangpu Military Academy, expressing resistance against a 'first battle, last battle' surrender mentality. This stance has raised criticism from Kuomintang legislators who accuse Lai of undermining former President Tsai Ing-wen's strategies regarding cross-strait relations, with concerns over the implications of 'de-Ciang-ing' within the military and the fundamental principles it stands on. The debate reflects broader anxieties within Taiwan's political landscape regarding national defense and military legacy.
