I’d like to read, USA has made a contract to deliver a 5 billion worth of fishing rods and hooks. I think it’d make a nice change of pace.
If China grabbed Taiwan, Trump’s response would be: “So how much are you going to pay me to not care?” And they’ll pay him, and he’ll be fine with it, and say “I created peace between them, when Biden, Obama, and Clinton all wanted to keep spending all that money to keep them separated. I should get all the money that I saved.”
No? The US Empire has huge millitant footholds in Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea precisely to pressure the PRC. If they pull out of Taiwan, they’d concede that China is no longer capable of being resisted by the US Empire.
Ah so the same regions the US and Australia regularly have drills in under the guise of “freedom of navigation.” Surely they wouldn’t be hypocrites about that would they?
Ah, .ml account
The difference here is that neither US or Australia is claiming Taiwan is a part of their country. Hope this helps 👍🏻
neither US or Australia is claiming Taiwan is a part of their country
need a fact check here
You’re on Lemmy.ml.
Either way, both Australia and the US recognize One China, and that the PRC is the legitimate government of China. The ROC, despite claiming to be the legitimate government of China, isn’t recognized as such by either the US or Australia.
Only in china the peoples democracy is so confident, that it allows millitarized separatist to pretend they are government of an island which they invaded and settled.
Damn those are some massive fucking boats
Taiwan “Hey Ukraine, got a few of those navel drones for us?”
Ukraine has shown that a traditional naval power is pretty weak.
lol yeah cuz Ukraine is doing great right now, huh?
Taiwan is likely looking at how the West used Ukraine and seeing its own future if it comes to war, and is not excited for it.
Acually Taiwan: “Hey Israel, nice genocide can we fund it?”
Do you think China doesn’t have drones? They produce a huge amount of them, and have defenses against drones.
Sure, the war on Ukraine and a possible war on Taiwan have so much in common, you are such an expert of warfare, they just need drones.
Why would they need to ask Ukraine for them when Taiwan has much more mature electronics manufacturing sectors than Ukraine?
There are other bits to making marine drones than just electronics.
Tomahawks are “just electronics” too and I’m pretty sure Taiwan can’t mass-produce those
