Taiwan Straights Tension

[Scottty]

People, chill. Why do you have to make this about each other?

Vietnam is probably trying to do what is best for themselves, which would include not provoking their large and powerful neighbor. Insisting that the Vietnamese government "choose a side" is silly. They already have a side they are supposed to be on: their own.

As for Taiwan and independence - if just declaring independence were all that was needed, there would be a lot more small countries in the world than there are. We should assume that the DPP are not so naive.

Indeed.
And,Taiwan is independent now - and would be as long as USA are superpower willing to support them.
Considering how Biden is destroing USA - not long.

But,before that happen,we would see China taking their property/Siberia/ from Moscov.
I wish to see what @History Learner would say then !

And,China could fall thanks to economy,too.
They fucked so many things in their society after all....

IMHO a proper cleanup of the American political system would probably need to include large segments of the Democrat party leadership and following being executed for treason.

Siberia as such was never part of any Chinese empire. And as for trying to take it by conquest, I'd assume the CCP like Beijing the way it is, not a huge smoking radioactive crater.

A country can have a totally messed up economy and the regime will still be in power, as long as they can keep the loyalty of enough of the people with guns and uniforms. China is not the United States.

1.That,ot USA would cease to exist.The same goes for Poland and Europe - unfortunatelly,we do not have elites capable of doing that,when USA still have chance.

2.During Tang dynasty,people there akcnowledged China power.For China this is enough,and,if they wait for Moscov to fall more,they could take it without nukes flying.
Of course,Putin still could have hidden super army waiting for such occasion.You never knew with KGB.

3.Regime in power - yes.But not as world superpower capable of ruling other countries,but bigger North Korea.
