Well it’s obvious why. There is literally fuck all either country could do to materially support them.
For all that’s happening with China, it’s navy is still confined to China’s sphere of influence. I’ve no doubt that whilst it would give the US Navy a bloody nose during an invasion of Taiwan, its a totally different ball game when it comes to projecting power.
Currently only three navies in the world have the ability to project any sort of military power of significance, the USA, UK and France. Sending the Chinese navy into America’s backyard would be a death sentence.
As for Russia? Well they’re an absolute joke. Their navy is unable to withstand attacks from a country with no navy.
And in any event, any attempt to intervene militarily would potentially invite a response from NATO and Australia.
