Is the US aircraft carrier left like this?Some people in Taiwan are too disappointed

Author:Global Times Time:2022.08.20

Since the PLA's "encirclement" exercise, the Taiwan authorities have been deploying the United States "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group near Taiwan as "life -saving straw". In particular, officials and White House officials have successively requested that the "Reagan" stays near Taiwan, and even advocates that the shipping machine will cross the Taiwan Strait, which will excite some people on the island. Crossing the scene of the Taiwan Strait.

As a result, the Seventh Fleet of the U.S. Navy announced on the 19th that the "Reagan" aircraft carrier had returned to Japan's Yokosuka Base on the day.

As soon as this news came out, the Taiwanese media sorrowful, the title was full of words such as "the Liden did not come to the Taiwan Strait", and the disappointment was overwhelming.

Taiwan's "ETTODAY News Cloud" website said on the 19th that as the tension situation in the Taiwan Strait rises, the "Reagan" trend has also attracted much attention. The latest news shows that the aircraft carrier has returned to Japan's Yokosuka Mother Port and has not crossed the Taiwan Strait. The U.S. Navy previously notified the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan on the 18th that the "Reagan" will enter the Barry Hakka Navy Base in the Mother Port. The Twitter account "Tokyo Radar", which is concerned about the dynamic of the surrounding Japanese machine ships, revealed that according to the public navigation information of the Tokyo Bay Ship Traffic Service Center in Japan, the "Reagan" entered the Porga Waterway at 7:10 on the 19th local time and returned base.

The "Reagan" on the 19th of the "South China Sea Strategic Situment Performance Plan" also announced on the 19th from July 30 to August 19, which confirmed that it had returned to the Yokosuka Base in the morning of the 19th and ended the deployment of the three months.

Many Taiwanese media noticed in the report that as the "Reagan" returned to the home port, "the confrontation between the United States and China is about to end", and the "Reagan" did not pass the Taiwan Strait.

According to US military information, the "Reagan" will be maintained after returning to Hengxu congratulations. Since the departure in Hong Kong in early May, the aircraft carrier has completed the thorough three -month maritime deployment task. At the same time, Kelly, the Public Affairs Officer of the Fifth Carrier -based Aircraft Federation in Japan, also stated to Japan on the 18th that "the aircraft of the 5th carrier -based aircraft federation has returned to the U.S. Military Rock Kingdom Base and Hugo Base in Japan."

The old driver believes that these actions prove that the "Reagan" will not sail again in the short term after returning to Hong Kong. Considering that the "Reagan" is the only cutting -edge aircraft carrier deployed by the US Navy, and it is also the only carrier currently deployed by the United States in the Western Pacific region. Another US aircraft carrier "Lincoln", which was previously activated in the Pacific region, was also not long ago. Back to the United States to repair, this not only means that the United States once again appeared in the aircraft carrier's combat power vacuum in the entire Pacific Ocean, but also in the short term, I am afraid that it can basically rule out the possibility of "American aircraft carrier crossing the Taiwan Strait."

Since the American speaker Pelosi has insisted on visiting Taiwan, the whereabouts of the "Reagan" have attracted much attention. The "South China Sea Strategic Situment Performance Plan" described that the mission of the "Largan" aircraft carrier strike group has changed many times, and the trajectory is extremely tortuous and complicated. "

Before and after the Perlis special plane visited Taiwan, the aircraft carrier provided remote protection from the South China Sea to the eastern part of the Philippines; during the PLA's subsequent "encirclement" exercise, the "Reagan" detour from the PLA's exercises in eastern Taiwan in eastern Taiwan In the area, I intend to return to Taiwan all the way to the north; however, the Pentagon subsequently requested the "Reagan" to "maintain surveillance" near Taiwan. The carrier who had arrived in the waters near Japan turned to the south on the 5th; to let Taiwan disappointed, the exercise in the PLA was exercise in the PLA exercise. During the period, the "Reagan" has been hovering in the northeast of Taiwan.

The former DPP "legislator" Guo Zhengliang believes that the "Reagan" has obviously made actions to show weakness when facing the military exercise of the PLA. He also said that the military exercise of the PLA was like a "shiny mirror", which not only showed the fragility and preparation of the army, but also showed that the United States violated its promise "standing with Taiwan".

When the PLA's "encirclement" exercise was completely over, the "Reagan" began to south on the 12th, and at noon on the 13th in the south of Okinawa. Campbell, a coordinator of the White House Guoan Society, claimed that "the United States will support Taiwan for a long -term policy, including standardized sea and air through the Taiwan Strait to support Taiwan's self -defense capabilities." The U.S. Navy Pacific Fleet also issued a press release on the 14th that the "Reagan" continued to be duty at the Philippines and kept a state of combat reserve with the 5th Shipbuilder Federation.

This has deepened the expectations of Taiwan's "escort" of the United States to send aircraft carriers. Even until the 17th, the U.S. Navy Pacific Fleet reiterated on social media accounts that the Reagan was "maintaining peace" in the Philippines and sailed in the Astrology area of ​​the Seventh Fleet in the US Navy. The information of the United States has high appetite in Taiwan.

Unexpectedly, I did not expect that the "Reagan" shot a shot, and returned to the Yokosuka Base on the 19th -it also hurts the feelings of some people in Taiwan!

However, the old driver believes that although the "Reagan" has returned to Japan, the possibility of recent shipping machines in the United States still exists through the provocation of the Taiwan Strait. Compared with the huge risks of political and military risks to send aircraft carriers in the Taiwan Strait, the U.S. military has previously dispatched destroyers or patrollers to cross the sea of ​​the aircraft, and the risks they have been relatively less high are not so high. Especially with the entry of "Reagan", its escort ship is "liberated", and it is likely to perform such adventure -the American destroyer "Ben Ford", which crosses the Taiwan Strait in July this year, is the escort of the "Reagan". One of the ships. In addition, the current U.S. Navy has the "Ripuri" amphibious attack ship in the waters near Taiwan. Another amphibious attack ship "US" is suspending at the Japanese Sonburns base. Their future movements are also worthy of our attention.

For the possible behavior of the United States, China has "preceded premium". Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin issued a clear warning at a press conference on the 17th: "We have to warn the United States solemnly, do not act lightly, do not create a bigger crisis, the players will definitely not end well, and the Chinese will be punished."
