Why are all the commentaries in the article claiming an information vacuum coming from people in the West. They all claim an information vacuum of some sort around Xi while people with ties to China claim otherwise. Why no comment from anyone from Taiwan. Personally, I have observed that US has been arming Taiwan with so many senior US politicians visiting a supposedly breakaway province of China frequently. I think that if the Taiwanese declare independence, there will definitely be a war. Whether or not it’s the US who pushes them to it, I don’t think it would matter.
