Taiwan has begun democracy process after the Cold War and had "direct presidential elections" since 1996. Taiwan had six "direct presidential elections",which resulted in three times of ruling party alternation and four directly elected "presidents" in last 20 years. Every-four-year Taiwan "presidential election" increases uncertainty for cross-Strait relations, especially when Democratic Progressive Party(DPP) “presidential candidate” Tsai Ing-wen won 2016 Taiwan "presidential election" with her policy of "Taiwan independence" challenging cross-Strait relations; as the largest outside factor of Taiwan Question, the U.S. had intervened in each Taiwan leadership election in order to control Taiwan authority and hamper the Chinese mainland, negatively affecting the peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.This thesis comprehensively analyzes the reason, purpose, means and influence of U.S. intervention on Taiwan "presidential election" based on the action of U.S.intervention and the adjustment of U.S. policy on Taiwan, concluding that Taiwan Question brings new challenges and opportunities for China-U.S. relations where Chinese mainland should find common interest of China and U.S., essentially increase predominance in the Taiwan Strait, reduce risk caused by Taiwan leadership election and maintain cross-Strait peaceful development as well as China-U.S. relations. For such purposes, China and U.S. should establish risk control mechanism for Taiwan Question and China need to work more predictively on diplomacy and to influence pro-Taiwan force in U.S. China and U.S. should understand that China-U.S. new-type of major-country relations and cross-Strait relations can develop peacefully and optimistically together, and based on such relations, China and U.S. should carefully handle Taiwan issue and promote world peace and development.
