Nine Chinese aircraft entered Taiwan's air defense identification zone (ADIZ) in the hours following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Taiwanese air assets were scrambled in response, according to Taiwan's defense ministry.

This is the perfect time for China to invade with the mess going on in Ukraine. Xi figures if Putin can get away with it then so can he.

Biden is the best president China and Russia have ever had.

That is a distinct possibility. In fact, I read China was conducting military drills inside Taiwan's airways.

It would be erroneous to draw a parallel between Ukraine and Taiwan.



NATO made it clear that it would not consider any military response as Ukraine is not a member.



The US has made it clear to China that it will respond if it attacked Taiwan.



And despite what we are fed by headline hungry media, the US is still a VERY powerful nation.

But, the United States has a very weak leader. Washington has the Taiwan Relations Act that forces the United States to give aid to Taiwan if it's attacked. But, I expect a tepid response from this administration in that scenario.

It's possible. But the American administration will be fully aware that the world sees it as weak and its alliances unreliable.



They will strongly support standing up against China.

"If it turns out that Putin is able to take all of Ukraine or even a huge chunk of it and get away with it, the Chinese will take note," says Grant Newsham, a retired U.S. Marine Colonel and Senior Fellow with the Center for Security Policy. "The Chinese are going to be emboldened to finally settle the Taiwan issue once and for all."

His weakness may be what's showing everywhere as no one is afraid of him



I am glad that the EU has seen the light and toughing up as they were when Trump made them do their part .. that slacked off a lot since Biden came in .. but this current war has really perked them up to be a power

Europe has been getting a free ride. Trump reminded them they can't expect to freeload off of American taxpayers indefinitely. Same shit applies to the Japanese and South Koreans.
