Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis

[siegecrossbow]

All bluff and bluster. Lesson is don’t make threats you aren’t ready to back up. Pelosi will have her trip in Taiwan and will leave safely making China look weak.

Oh it is much worse than that. It will encourage other entities to continually challenge the supposed red lines until a much greater loss of life is necessitated.

The following weeks is going to be very interesting.

So basically

This will be a hard lesson for China. Stop pretend to be good guy with all bark no bite.

Geopolitic is not for peoples with moral.

NO. The lesson for China is that there is still a decade or two more to go before it reaches military parity with the American hegemon!

Instead of fighting about whether the PLA should shoot down Pelosi's plane, I think the more urgent question now is where are those reported PLAAF Su-35 fighters now?

I would guess sitting on their airbases tarmac.

The following weeks is going to be very interesting.

The worst thing that could happen is in an effort to look strong, actual violence happens and gets escalated.

Mission Salami Slicing: Achievement unlocked!

This could be an excuse to get involved directly in Ukraine and cut the crap.

Maybe China will finally accept confrontation with the US will happen regardless of their postures.

All bluff and bluster. Lesson is don’t make threats you aren’t ready to back up. Pelosi will have her trip in Taiwan and will leave safely making China look weak.

Watch how western countries start trolling China one by one by sending their officials to Tawian. Xi is too coward to do anything about it. Thats the reality.

 

[plawolf]

Are people seriously drawing conclusions this quickly?!

 

[Ptah]

China and USA are joined at the hip. Wallstreet and CCP are the closest of buddies. Pelosi is CCPs own.
