【記者秦雨霏／綜合報導】台灣駐美代表處在新年第一天升起青天白日滿地紅的國旗。自
從美國在1979年承認北京政權以來，這是它36年來第一次在美國升起中華民國國旗。

逾100人參加了上週四雙橡園的典禮，包括台灣駐美代表沈呂巡。
據中央社報導，民國67年12月31日中美斷交前夕，前外交部次長楊西崑於雙橡園舉行最後
1次降旗儀式，不少出席人士在淒風細雨中淚流滿面。

36年後的隔日，華府天晴氣朗，青空無雲，國旗由兩名護旗官捧送入場，儀式在沈呂巡主
持下，國旗在歌聲中冉冉升起，氣氛依舊感人。





路透社1月5日報導說，中共從未排除武力攻台。自從國民黨部隊1949年到台灣之後，中共
和台灣一直分開統治。

升旗儀式是最新一起涉及台灣、令中美關係緊張的事件。在歐巴馬簽署法律授權出售四艘
佩裡級導彈護衛艦給台灣之後，北京12月份對美國提出抗議。

中共外交部發言人華春瑩說，中共「堅決反對」升旗儀式，並向美國提出「嚴正交涉」。

雖然自從2008年以來台灣和中共已經簽署一系列貿易和經濟協議，但是政治和軍事的懷疑
仍然深刻存在，特別是在民主的台灣，許多人害怕中共的真實意圖。

China fumes after Taiwan's flag raising in Washington

Reuters) - China has protested to the United States after Taiwan's de facto
embassy in Washington hoisted a Taiwanese flag on New Year's Day, and urged
the United States to respect the "One China" policy, the foreign ministry
said on Monday.

The U.S. State Department said it had not been notified in advance of the
ceremony and that it was inconsistent with U.S. policy.

China deems Taiwan a renegade province and hasn't ruled out the use of force
to take it back, particularly if the island makes a move toward independence.
The One China policy holds that there is only one China and that Taiwan is
part of it.

Taiwan's China Post newspaper reported on Saturday that the ceremony in
Washington was the first time the Taiwanese flag had been raised in the
United States in 36 years since Washington switched recognition from Taiwan
to Beijing in 1979.

More than 100 people attended the ceremony on Thursday, including Taiwan's
top envoy to the U.S. Shen Lyushun, the China Post said, citing the Taipei
Economic and Cultural Representative Office in Washington.

"We resolutely oppose the so-called flag-raising ceremony by Taiwan's agency
in the United States and have lodged solemn representations with the United
States," foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told a daily news briefing.

Hua called on the United States to abide by the 'One China' policy and
"prudently and properly handle" any issues relating to Taiwan to prevent
similar incidents from happening again.

U.S. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the United States "did not
know about the flag raising in advance."

"No U.S. government personnel attended the event in any capacity," she said.

The incident is the latest involving Taiwan to roil relations between the
United States and China. Beijing lodged a protest with the United States in
December after President Barack Obama signed into law legislation authorizing
the sale of up to four Perry-class guided missile frigates to Taiwan.

China and Taiwan have been ruled separately since defeated Nationalist forces
fled to the island at the end of a civil war with the Communists in 1949.

While Taiwan and China have signed a series of landmark trade and economic
agreements since 2008, political and military suspicions still run deep,
especially in democratic Taiwan where many fear China's true intentions.
