On January 19, EST, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo shouted to the Biden administration before he left office that the Chinese Communist Party must be taken seriously as an “existential” threat to the United States.
After the transfer of power from the Trump administration, former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo released his first tweet after leaving office on January 21, surprisingly a set of mysterious numbers “1384 days”, just a few words, and soon tens of thousands of netizens retweeted the discussion. Many people commented that this is equivalent to more than three years of numbers, and speculation that he is planning to participate in the presidential election in 2024?
On January 20, the U.S. underwent a peaceful change of government and transfer of power. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who left office with President Trump, tweeted before leaving office to review the friendly measures he took towards Taiwan during his tenure, including lifting restrictions on Taiwan-U.S. exchanges and sending senior officials to Taiwan. He also praised Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen and blasted the Chinese Communist Party as the main threat of this era.
Pompeo also said in an interview with Newsmax TV on the morning of the 20th that he hoped the Biden Administration would continue to be tough on the Chinese Communist Party. He also hopes that the American people will also keep pressure on the Chinese Communist Party.
I want this to be a real commitment on behalf of the United States, a bipartisan commitment to challenge the threat of the Chinese Communist Party, wherever that threat is directed against American freedom,” he said.
Pompeo said the U.S. declaration that the Chinese Communist Party’s persecution of Uighur Muslims and other religious groups is “genocide” is an “important decision” made after careful consideration, a policy he hopes the next Biden administration will continue.
As secretary of state, I have been personally engaged in this work,” he said. They (referring to the Chinese Communist Party) are committing forced abortions, forced sterilizations, the worst human rights violations in decades, decades. I used to call it the stain of the century.”
In a statement on Jan. 19, Pompeo accused the Chinese Communist Party of committing crimes against Muslims and members of other minority and religious groups in Xinjiang back in March 2017.
This is because the decision was announced as the Trump Administration was about to leave office. Some have been critical of the timing. In response, Pompeo said he wished the decision could have been made sooner and earlier. When making such an important announcement, it is critical that you have conducted a thorough and complete analysis.
Pompeo said, “We have worked with countries around the world, government-level organizations, to make sure that we know the facts accurately enough so that I can be very clear about what has happened, is that there have been Crimes Against Humanity, the fact that the Chinese Communist Party has committed genocide and continues to do that.”
Pompeo’s remarks infuriated the Chinese Communist Party authorities, and on the 20th when Biden was inaugurated, the Chinese Foreign Ministry immediately announced in the early hours of the 21st that sanctions were imposed on senior Trump administration officials including Pompeo, Bannon and 28 others.
However, Pompeo did not pay attention to the sanctions of the Chinese Communist Party, he released his first tweet after leaving office at 10:17 a.m. EST on the 21st, “1384 days” in several mysterious numbers. Netizens have speculated whether this implies that Pompeo will be in the U.S. election campaign in 2024. But Pompeo did not answer the netizens’ questions.
The 57-year-old Pompeo, who majored in mechanical engineering during his early years at the U.S. Military Academy, graduated with the highest marks in his class in 1986. After retiring from the military, he attended Harvard Law School, where he graduated with honors.
Pompeo entered politics at the age of 46, winning his bid for Congress in 2010 and running for re-election three times before President Trump invited him to join the current administration. He also served as Director of Intelligence, and his tenure as Secretary of State lasted less than three years. His image of uniting the world against Communism and strongly supporting Taiwan is deeply rooted during Trump’s presidency.
