I can see some American politicians are celebrating this as a blow to (communist) China.
But is this not hurting Taiwan in a major strategic long term way? And risks turning the whole island towards mainland.
And for the ones celebrating "Re-industrilization of America". Is the America you envision really a America which does not have anything of importance produced outside America. Even if outside means traditional allies such as Germany, Japan, Taiwan ... ?
- tanilama 6y agoTaiwanese people probably wish to not be strategic in a China-US battle. That only means the destruction of that island.
- chvid 6y agoTaiwan is strategic to the US-China battle because it is strategic to China; if Taiwan reunites with China, China will have full access to the Pacific.
- fermienrico 6y agoThe narrative of American politicians, particularly President Trump, against Europeans has not manifested in the general public, especially in the tech industry. Americans and Europeans work together much in the same way, atleast in my personal experience and exposure to both continents. The tech industry is too smart to be manipulated by politicians.
