nicely written, well researched. I learned a few things. but still does not mean RoC is not a separate government. if they are the remains of Nationalist China, of course they lay claim to being the true government of the rest of China. also, is the un, who and wto the true arbiters of whether a government should be in charge of a particular country? since the communist china has gained such influence in world affairs, ofc they exercise pressure to not have the RoC recognized. regardless, the usa promised they would help defend Taiwan if invaded. giving up on them now would make the usa's word as valid as it is with treaties such as those with our indigenous tribes. also, I will continue to disagree with your point of view. I also disagree with much of the un and the wto.
Thanks for comment. May I suggest you read Nixon's "The Real War". Talks about China and Russia. I came away with the feeling China will wait as lone as it takes to bring Taiwan back into the fold. They don't want a war: it would shut down the vital shipping lane. So my feeling is China will not invade. Odds? It give it a 80%. Remember, it is OUR propaganda that China will invade. IT is OUR propaganda that is stirring up the pot. Just like Ukraine: Russia and China are both saying what are you doing. The 20% I give is if the US pushes the Chinese over the tipping point. That is why I say we/US needs to just back off.
i agree on giving the odds we china won't invade China (what? Taiwan.) but feel it is more 60/40 to 70/30. I just do not like statements out of cjhina warning other countries not to get in their way or interfere. I also do not like china's military build up. if they think they are strong enough, they might just do it. what do they have to lose? people? they have a glut of people.
