What an extremely callous and deeply cold-hearted thing to say about an ally. Imagine someone said that about the US?
- api 4y agoI should have qualified that with: if China is actually going to invade and we can’t stop them. I don’t think you are going to convince the US leadership to go to war directly against a nuclear power for Taiwan. They won’t for Ukraine either. If Taiwan can resist like Ukraine they will supply Taiwan, but China is considerably stronger and more advanced than Russia. I don’t think that level of resistance is likely. If I were Taiwanese I’d rather have the option of having a good place to go as an alternative to forceful subjugation by a totalitarian power.
