Recently, a person from a country with which we have formal relations told me, "You in the ROC used to request that we have no relations with the mainland. If the new government itself wants actively to establish friendship with China, then sorry, but we'll have to say goodbye."
甚至最近有邦交國人士告訴我，以前你們中華民國要求我們不要和中國往來，現在新政府要是積極跟中國作朋友的話，對不起，那我們就再見了。
