Wu Se-chih's perspective: Ocean currents are rising, Shen Po-yang and Chiang Wan-an must be careful of Beijing's cross-border suppression tactics ZH吳瑟致觀點》 洋流泛起 沈伯洋、蔣萬安都必須小心北京跨境鎮壓的奧步
Newtalk新聞 台北市長選戰逐漸升溫,政治版圖的變化猶如洋流泛起,牽動的不只是政黨競爭,更可能成為北京對台施加政治影響力的重要戰場;尤其當沈伯洋的選情起色,中共接連針對其本人及家屬採取法律恫嚇與經濟制裁,更讓跨境鎮壓與介入台灣民主選舉之間的關係,成為不容忽視的國安議題。 值得注意的是,面對中共的政治操作,不能只從藍綠攻防的角度理解,更不能以為北京只會針對民進黨候選人出手,沈伯洋可能遭到直接打擊,蔣萬安同樣可能成為北京政治操作的棋子;無論是藉由人身攻擊、家屬施壓、抹黑爆料,或者刻意製造同情與政治對立,北京真正想要的,未必是直接決定誰當選,而是利用外部力量改變台灣社會的議題設定、政治情緒與民主運作。 信民協會公布民調,沈伯洋贏蔣萬安 17%,黃暐瀚指出,「洋流超車 黃金交叉」台北市「綠從未贏」的魔咒,很有可能將在 2026 年被打破。 圖:張良一/攝(資料照) 跨境鎮壓是中共介入台灣政治的長期工具 中共近年對台跨境鎮壓的手段,已經從公開點名、懸賞通緝與法律恫嚇,逐步延伸至親屬、企業、支持者,甚至透過境外出資、在地中介與徵信業者,建立外包式的跟監與施壓網絡,這些行動並非單純的政治口水,而是企圖把中共的政治意志帶進台灣社會,讓個人因為政治立場而付出人身安全、家庭生活、經濟活動與公共表達的代價。 沈伯洋及其家人可能已遭跟監,以及中國方面宣布制裁其父親所涉企業,正凸顯北京施壓模式的變化。必須說,當政治攻擊不再只針對政治人物本人,而是將觸角延伸至家庭與企業,目的便不只是讓當事人承受壓力,更是向其他政治人物、民間團體與一般民眾傳遞警告:只要涉及北京認定的政治紅線,個人及其周邊關係都可能成為施壓對象。 沈伯洋競選總部副主委吳怡農(右)陪同沈伯洋進行第二波台北大洋流車掃活動。 圖:沈伯洋辦公室/提供 這正是跨境鎮壓最值得警惕之處,北京不必真的將每一個人逮捕,也不必讓每一次威脅都產生實質效果,只要透過少數案例建立恐懼,讓其他人開始自我審查、避免公開表態,甚至不敢參與政治活動,威嚇便已經產生作用。 而台北市長選舉,恰好提供北京將既有鎮壓工具轉化為政治操作的機會,台北不只是台灣的首都,更是台灣政治象徵與媒體注意力的核心,台北市長選舉的結果,容易被北京包裝成對台灣整體政治走向的判斷,甚至被納入其對民進黨政府、台灣主體意識及兩岸政策的宣傳敘事。 因此,必須區分兩件事,一是跨境鎮壓是北京長期推動的政治工程,二則是介選可能運用這套工程達成的階段性目的,兩者並非完全相同,卻可以相互結合,當既有的法律恫嚇、企業制裁或人身監控恰好發生在選戰期間,北京就可能藉由特定時機、媒體傳播與政治攻防,將其轉化為選舉議題。 民進黨台北市長候選人沈伯洋(左)與拚連任台北市長蔣萬安(右)。 圖:翻攝自蔡英文臉書、張良一/攝(新頭殼合成照) 沈、蔣都不能掉以輕心北京的打擊 面對台北市長選戰,最需要提防的,就是以為北京的介選手段必然只有一種方向,若將中共的政治操作簡化為「打擊綠營、扶植藍營」,反而可能低估其手段的複雜性。 對沈伯洋而言,北京已經透過公開點名、法律追責、家屬企業制裁等方式,試圖將其塑造成中共政治敘事中的負面人物;當沈伯洋投入首都市長選戰,相關手段便可能被進一步選舉化,透過刻意挑選的爆料時機、放大的商業爭議,或真假交錯的資訊,將政治攻擊轉化為選民對候選人誠信、家庭背景及政治立場的疑慮。 這類操作難防範的情況是將部分真實資訊抽離脈絡,搭配特定政治標籤,在選戰關鍵時刻集中曝光,原本可以透過正常程序查證的事實,可能被包裝成具有高度情緒性的政治事件,使候選人被迫耗費大量時間澄清,讓政策討論失去舞台,即使最後無法改變選舉結果,也可能成功設定選戰議題,迫使社會依照北京所選擇的框架進行爭論。 台北市長蔣萬安。 圖:張良一/攝(資料照) 然而,蔣萬安同樣不能因此認為自己置身事外,北京對台灣政治的影響力操作,並不必然以扶植特定候選人為唯一目的,假如北京認為,透過攻擊蔣萬安可以製造藍營支持者危機意識,或者讓台北選戰陷入更大規模的政治對立,就不排除採取相關手段。 另一種可能,則是北京利用對特定候選人的攻擊,刻意製造同情效應與危機感,藉此影響其他候選人的政治判斷及支持者的情緒,當人身安全受到威脅的消息進入選戰,社會輿論可能迅速分化;有人將其視為政治迫害,有人則可能把事件解讀為政黨操作,並經由社群平台與政治性媒體反覆傳播,原本應該共同譴責的境外政治脅迫,反而可能演變成台灣內部的政黨互鬥。 沈伯洋台北大洋流車掃活動終點站民權公園,支持者將活動現場擠得水洩不通。 圖:翻攝自沈伯洋YT 這正是北京可能利用的政治縫隙,不一定要讓某個候選人獲勝,只要讓台灣社會彼此猜疑、相互指控,就可能達成削弱民主共識的目的。 因此,無論沈伯洋或蔣萬安,都不應低估來自境外的政治風險,對任何候選人而言,最重要的不是預設自己會成為受害者,或急於指控對手與北京有所關聯,而是建立共同底線,任何境外勢力透過威脅、跟監、暴力或不當施壓干預台灣選舉,都應該受到嚴肅檢視,並依據具體證據追究責任。 中共或許改變不了選情 …

China's gray zone harassment; Bonnie Glaser calls on US and Taiwan to deepen cooperation and strengthen coordination with Japan and the Philippines ZH中國灰色地帶侵擾 葛來儀籲美台深化合作、加強與日菲協調
Newtalk新聞 駐亞特蘭大辦事處攜手田納西大學諾克斯維爾分校今天舉辦研討會,並簽署教育合作MOU。出席研討會的美國學者葛來儀表示,面對中國灰色地帶手段,呼籲美台深化海巡、資安、能源韌性及國防合作,並與日本、菲律賓等夥伴加強協調。 駐亞特蘭大台北經濟文化辦事處發布新聞稿表示,辦事處與田納西大學諾克斯維爾分校(University of Tennessee, Knoxville)今天共同舉辦「美國建國250週年暨台灣總統直選30週年:從共享價值到戰略互信」研討會,並簽署台灣與田納西州學術及教育合作備忘錄(MOU),為雙方高等教育、學術研究及人才培育開啟新的合作契機。 辦事處處長林主恩致詞表示,台美夥伴關係奠基於長期交流與互信,即使面對國際經貿情勢變動及區域安全挑戰,雙方仍持續深化經貿、科技及教育合作。 辦事處指出,研討會第一場專題演講邀請前美國在台協會(AIT)理事主席、現為華府智庫「布魯金斯研究所」(Brookings Institution)非常駐資深研究員的卜睿哲(Richard Bush)主講台美戰略互信議題。 卜睿哲表示,台美關係雖奠基於民主、法治及人權等共同價值,但雙方國家利益與風險評估未必完全一致。面對區域安全挑戰及美國對台政策的不確定性,台灣應持續強化國防、民主治理及社會韌性,並透過跨黨派合作提升政策效能;台美也應維持密切溝通,以深化戰略互信。 第二場專題演講則由華府智庫「德國馬歇爾基金會」(The German Marshall Fund)印太計畫主任葛來儀(Bonnie Glaser)主講印太穩定與台美戰略夥伴關係。 葛來儀指出,中國近年持續在東海、南海及台灣周邊海域運用海警巡邏、海上執法及行政管轄主張等「灰色地帶」手段,企圖在不引發大規模軍事衝突的情況下逐步改變區域現狀。 她強調,美台應深化海巡、資安、能源韌性及國防合作,並與日本、菲律賓等區域夥伴加強協調,共同維護台海和平與印太區域穩定。 研討會也邀請其他學者與談,針對台灣民主治理、中國威權挑戰、灰色地帶脅迫、防禦嚇阻及區域安全合作等議題進行分析。 此外,辦事處指出,台灣與田納西州學術及教育合作備忘錄由林主恩及田納西大學國際事務副教務長奈斯勒(Gretchen Neisler)共同簽署,合作範圍涵蓋師生及研究人員交流、學術與教學資源共享,以及學位合作等。未來可望在華語文教育、人工智慧、半導體及高科技人才培育等方面深化合作。 駐亞特蘭大辦事處轄區包括田納西州。延伸閱讀:挑戰美國AI巨頭 中國DeepSeek完成1000億人民幣融資烏軍無人機轟炸俄5座資料中心! 民眾日常生活受影響 AI發展恐倒退數年外食族荷包又要縮水!石二鍋、梁社漢接力漲價 網酸:聽說CPI只有2%?強颱薔琵預報兩極化!鄭明典揭「分歧關鍵」嘆:AI衝擊比想像中快美光罷工3》台中工會批桃園罷工「殺雞取卵」 桃園員工不滿情緒發言、新機制仍有黑箱空間
