台湾总统金门岛强调加强防卫 吁团结抵抗中国威胁
金门,8月23日 – 台湾总统赖清德今日在金门岛出席纪念“八二三炮战”66周年活动,并强调了加强防卫力量的重要性,呼吁台湾人民团结一致抵抗来自中国大陆的威胁。
赖清德在金门烈士公墓为战殁将士上香、敬献花圈并默哀,随后与前士兵和战殁者遗属共进午餐,表达了对每一位参战人员的感谢。他在讲话中表示,“我们要有决心团结一致抵抗中国的威胁,同时与民主阵营站在一起,共同维护台海的和平稳定。”
赖清德此番言论是在台海局势持续紧张的背景下发表的。今年2月,一艘非法作业的中国大陆渔船在金门岛附近海域倾覆,造成两名船员死亡。此后,中国海警船在该海域的活动日益频繁,紧张局势不断升级。
“八二三炮战”是台海两岸关系史上的重要事件。1958年8月23日,中国大陆军队对金门岛发起猛烈炮击,战斗持续了40多天,造成大量军人和平民伤亡。此次事件成为冷战时期两岸关系的转折点,也对台湾的国防建设产生了深远影响。
赖清德此次访问金门岛,除了纪念“八二三炮战”外,也被外界解读为向海内外传递台湾自卫的决心。近年来,中国大陆对台湾的军事压力不断加大,台湾当局也加大了国防开支,提升军备力量。
分析人士认为,赖清德的讲话表明台湾当局将继续坚持“抵抗中国威胁”的立场,并寻求国际社会的支持,以维护台海和平稳定。

Taiwan President Calls for Strengthened Defense in Kinmen Amid Rising China Threat
Kinmen, August 23 – Taiwan President Lai Ching-te,during his visit to Kinmen Island to commemorate the 66th anniversary of the “August 23 Artillery Battle,” emphasized the importance of strengthening Taiwan’s defense capabilities and called for unity in resisting threats from mainland China.
Lai paid respects at the Kinmen Martyrs’ Cemetery, offering incense and a wreath tothe fallen soldiers, and observed a moment of silence. He later shared a meal with former soldiers and families of the deceased, expressing his gratitude to all who participated in the battle. In his speech, he stated, “We must be resolutein our unity to resist China’s threats, stand with the democratic camp, and jointly safeguard peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.”
Lai’s remarks come amidst escalating tensions in the Taiwan Strait. In February, a Chinese fishing vesselengaged in illegal activities capsized near Kinmen Island, resulting in the deaths of two crew members. Since then, Chinese coast guard vessels have become increasingly active in the area, further escalating tensions.
The “August 23 Artillery Battle” holds significant historical importance in the cross-strait relationship. On August23, 1958, the Chinese People’s Liberation Army launched a heavy bombardment on Kinmen Island, which lasted for over 40 days and resulted in numerous casualties among military personnel and civilians. This event marked a turning point in the cross-strait relationship during the Cold War and had aprofound impact on Taiwan’s defense development.
Lai’s visit to Kinmen Island, beyond commemorating the “August 23 Artillery Battle,” is also interpreted as a message to both domestic and international audiences about Taiwan’s determination to defend itself. In recent years, mainland China has intensified its military pressure on Taiwan, prompting the Taiwanese authorities to increase defense spending and enhance their military capabilities.
Analysts believe that Lai’s speech signifies the Taiwanese government’s continued commitment to “resisting China’s threats” and seeking international support to maintain peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.
