「臺海中立」時期中華民國武裝部隊對大陸沿海外籍船舶的干涉行動,1950-1952
摘要
After the break-out of Korean War in June 1950, the U.S. forces intervened the Taiwan Strait to avoid the invasion from PRC and to ask the ROC armed forces to stop any kind of military measures against the Mainland China, including the ”port-closure policy”-using navy and air force to disallow any vessels getting in or out the Mainland China territorial waters and ports. Although the ROC government accepted the request of U. S. government, but in fact, the ”interference of shipping” from the ROC armed forces and the anti-communist guerillas still occurred during the period of so-called ”neutralization of the Straits of Formosa (Taiwan).” This article will describe and try to explain the aspects of continuing interference of foreign vessels from the ROC armed force and guerillas between the beginning of ”neutralization” and the end of 1952. In the author's opinion, the most important reason of this paradox is the difference between the thought of international politics and the strategic measures of the Korean War; the influence of the UN Resolution of Embargo on strategic materials against PRC and North Korea in May 1951 was not as strong as expected, though the ROC government used it as an argument to reinforce the legality of interfering with foreign shipping. And, some of the interference cases were in fact based on the instigation from the U. S. armed forces or CIA, and could be seen as the pioneer of the Sino-American secret military corporations during the Cold War.
