President Tsai Ing-wen's phone call to US President-elect Trump has caused international concern. International media have reported the move as a Trump provocation of US-China tension. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi criticised Taiwan as engaging in petty manouevers. Taiwan analysts believe that it is good to have a start on US-Taiwan dialogue, but the price to pay may be followed up by military, economic and trade actions from China against Taiwan.
President Tsai Ing-wen's call to President-elect Trump and his public tweet about it has been analysed in international media as a blunder which will exacerbate tensions in US-China relations.
==REPORTER ABC News==
This is a stunning development, somthing that has not happened in nearly 40 years. Right now the US has no diplomatic relationship with Taiwan, treating it as part of China, but tonight we learnt from the President-elect's team that Donald Trump and the President of Taiwan have discussed close economic, political and security ties. China is not going to take this well.
During his campaign, Trump repeatedly criticized China's economic and trade policies and called China a currency manipulator. However, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi laid the blame on Taiwan saying it was a petty manouever which will not change the long-standing one China policy adhered to by the US. Former ROC representative to the US, Shen Lu-hsun still said it was a good start to development of relations between Taiwan and the new US administration.

Why interfere with my congratulatory phone calls? This is a bit too much. We have good bilateral relations with the United States, its normal to have a call between heads of state, why is this a petty manouever?
Analysts say that currently Henry Kissinger, a long-time Republican supporter of China is on a visit there, originally thought to be reassuring China about Trump after his anti-China campaign rhetoric. The phone call may have thrown a spanner in the works and raised tension and uncertainties again.
==LAI YUEH-CHIEN Asst. Prof. Shih Chien University School of Liberal Education==
The trust between the US and China is already weak and even with Kissinger who is a solid pillar of support for China, over there, his role has been weakened by this. So the US-China relationship is off to a bad start, if this is bad then the cross strait relationship for Taiwan will also be poor.
The diplomatic price for a phone call between President Tsai and President-elect Trump is yet more uncertainty and Tsai's government will need to have a prgamatic strategy for China's follow-up action in defense, trade and economic policy.
蔡英文和川普熱線十分鐘,英美各大媒體也紛紛以顯著篇幅報導,由於有不少評論,指出川普 這個舉動,將挑起「美中」之間的 敏感神經。中國外長 王毅 昨天重話批評,是台灣 在搞小動作。我國學者認為,台美對話 是好的開始,但不能忽略中國後續、包括軍事、經貿等,可能的反制行動!
總統蔡英文致電美國準總統川普,引發關注,美國洛杉磯時報和英國金融時報,以及美國有線電視等,都加以報導,不過卻也在報導中評論,川普此舉恐將牽動美中敏感神經,甚至引起雙方關係緊張。
==美國ABC主播 vs. 記者==
你怎麼解讀川普和台灣的這通電話
這種情形 其實在將近40年來
在台美之間從未發生
因為現在美國和台灣沒有邦交關係
只有與中國
而這通電話 川普和台灣方面
談到雙方經濟政治
及安全方面的連結
這在中國看來 將會引起不悅的
川普在競選期間,曾多次嚴厲批評中國經貿政策,將中國視為匯率操作者,威脅日後要對中國進口商品提高關稅,但中國外長王毅今天批評川普蔡英文熱線,"是台灣方面搞的一個小動作",直言不會改變美國政府多年來堅持的一個中國政策。不過,對此次熱線,我前駐美大使沈呂巡肯定,認為對台美發展是好的開始。
==前駐美代表 沈呂巡==
要干涉我去跟誰打一通道賀電話
這未免也管得太多了吧
我們跟美國雙邊的關係
本來就很好
互相元首之間打個電話
怎麼叫小動作呢
學者則分析,這通熱線電話,川普無疑是對正在訪中的美國親中派前國務卿季辛吉,打了耳光,讓美中關係提前緊繃,中方勢必在台美間有進一步動作。
==實踐大學博雅學部副教授 賴岳謙==
中國大陸和美國之間的
信任關係 已經下降了
甚至連最重要的信任的橋梁
就是季辛吉這樣的一個角色
都被削弱了
所以一開始中美關係的開局
不會是一件好事情
中美關係的開局不會是好事情的話
對兩岸關係也不會是好事情
台美熱線十分鐘,但十分鐘外交的代價,學者認為已為美中台關係,增加更大的不確定性,政府須對後續中國在經貿國防等方面的回應策略,務實面對。
