Germany must not be “naïve” about the “very real” risk of China invading Taiwan, one of Berlin’s top economic advisers has warned. Monika Schnitzer, who leads the Council of Economic Experts, said the country must reduce economic ties with the world’s second biggest economy to avoid “a real moment of conflict” if Xi Jinping sends troops onto the island.
I hate america as much as every sensible person does but america has concentration camps, locking people up solely because of their religion, rapes the women, steals their organs, arrests people who report it, brutally beats down protesters and have elected their dictator for life? I mean I al sure america rapes inmates in their torture camps, I doubt they steal their organs and do all the other stuff
How many countries have America invaded? How many have China invaded?
Tibet, Vietnam…
Lots of other countries are afraid of an invasion in south east Asia, at minimum a seizure of their fishing territories and waters.
Currently we are discussing a possible invasion of Taiwan.
Oh there’s also the modern border conflicts with India and the Sino-Indian war in 1962 and flare ups since.
All of which is to say, don’t mistake an inability to project power outside of their region with an unwillingness to be an imperialist bully. China was involved in the Mali war with the UN, and were a Chinese company to have it’s investments in insert African or Latin American country threatened by a “socialist” government nationalizing it they would be just as likely to pull the same BS as the US did in Latin America in the 20th century if they could actually project power there.
Possible invasions are not as bad a actual invasions where Americans have destroyed entire cities in the middle east and forced millions of people to become refugees.
