President Lai Ching-te's remarks at the Huangpu Centennial School Celebration on June 16th stating 'cannot accept the surrenderism of first battle, end of war' sparked controversy as it's a strategy of the CCP. This was criticized by Ma's office accusing Lai of inciting war, which Defense Minister Gu Li-hsiung clarified they never seek war but aim to gradually weaken China's invasion of Taiwan. These tensions arise amidst cross-strait tensions with reports suggesting Xi Jinping warned against US provocation to attack Taiwan, aiming to achieve the 'great rejuvenation' of the Chinese nation by 2049, possibly related to Pelosi's visit to Taiwan and the Tsai-Biden meeting according to experts.
