  • It’s one of the most daunting questions of the 21st century: Will there be war over Taiwan?
    Tensions in the Taiwan Strait are at their worst in 40 years. October 2021 saw a record number of Chinese military jets fly into Taiwan’s air buffer zone. Things between Beijing and Taipei have been acrimonious. Washington’s strained relations with China make matters even more fraught.
    Will China’s President Xi Jinping use force to settle the Taiwan issue once and for all? And if he does, will the US come to Taiwan’s defence, as President Biden seems to have promised? Is Taiwan under Tsai Ing-Wen prepared for war? We hear from political analysts, military experts and more.

    I think Americans are now very willing to see a proxy war between the mainland and Taiwan. Firstly, it can shift the focus of unfavorable domestic governance. Secondly, it can make huge profits and please the military-industrial complex by selling more weapons to Taiwan. Thirdly, it can use this as an excuse to unite its allies to strengthen economic and technological sanctions on the mainland. Finally, the most important thing is that it can cause heavy losses to the mainland's economy and infrastructure, thereby slowing down China's development process, so as to continue to maintain its position as the world's number one for a long period of time in the future. Get four things in one fell swoop. Why not?

Will USA still join that war? People living in Taiwan are literally Chinese, and around 95% are Han Chinese, which is even higher than that of Mainland Chinese, which is around 91%. I am from mainland China but I highly appreciate the democracy in Taiwan, and I respect Taiwan people's freedom and dignity. I hope they retain their democratic and constitutional system. However, denying they are ethnic Chinese offended our emotion. Even though, I cherish there is no war between mainland China and Taiwan, and I heartedly hope people in Taiwan keep in prosperity and live in complete autocracy. Regarding US' choice if there is really a war, I don't think US will risk its own people's lives to intervene an ethnically internal war of Chinese people, unless China said after Taiwan, they would take Australia or New Zealand, which is groundlessly to happen based on my understanding.

    Taiwan only became a limited democracy until after 1988. Before that it was an anti-communist dictatorship ruled over by the right-wing Chinese nationalist party. The current ruling party is liberal and said to be Taiwanese nationalist in opposition to the Chinese Nationalist Party (Kuomintang). However despite their Taiwanese rhetoric, the Democratic Progressive Party has not declared independence and still maintains the Republic of China as build by the Chinese nationalists since 1911.

The PRC government only currently has the power of representing China's sovereignty which was previously represented by ROC until 1971 in the United Nations. It means China's sovereignty has not changed, but the representitive has changed. You were kicked out of the UN in 1971. You should understand that PRC and ROC are in the concept of government, not sovereignty. Only China has sovereignty. PRC and ROC do not have sovereignty, but only represent the entire China's sovereignty currently and previously. Your so called independence is the entire China's independence which include both mainland and Taiwan together as a whole, when ROC still had power to represent the entire China. The taiwan island has never has its own sovereignty and no independence as well. BTW, we don't care people in Taiwan believe any cliam by mainland or not, just like the US did not care about the claim by the people in Confederate States in 1861. You want your independence, go somewhere else such as Tokyo or London to declare your indepencence on their land, but the Taiwan island belongs to China.

      There is but one China in the world, Taiwan is part of China’s territory and the government of the People’s Republic of China is the sole legal government representing the whole of China. This is a consensus of the international community and a commitment made by the US to China. The one-China principle is unshakable, China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity cannot be violated and the red line of avoiding creating “two Chinas” and “one China, one DIEwan” must not be crossed. 
      China has full confidence and capability and are fully prepared to firmly stem the “DIEwan independence” separatist activities, foil all external interference and resolutely uphold its sovereignty and territorial integrity. I’d like to advise better listen to a well-known Chinese song with these lyrics: “For our friends, we have fine wine. For jackals or wolves, we welcome with shotguns.”

      Functionally, for all intents and purposes, Taiwan (the Republic of China) has operated as an independent state and country for over 70 years. They have their own military, their own government, their own taxation system, their own passports and they don't answer to the government in Beijing. Their government predates the one on the mainland and the current mainland government has never ruled the island of Taiwan. While most countries don't officially recognize Taiwan as an independent country, so that they can access mainland China's markets, many still operate unofficial offices that act as embassies and consulates with Taiwan. Furthermore, Taiwan has been holding free and fair democratic elections as a multi-party democracy for nearly 30 years now, and is even the first East Asian state to legalize same-sex marriage. After 70 years of separation, it seems that Taiwan has drifted away and developed enough of an identity and society where you could view it as a southern Chinese republic, but not specifically a part of China. The mainland government pressures any country or corporation it deals with to adopt their language regarding Taiwan, or be blocked out of any deals with the Chinese market.

    The logic is simple:

    a minor premise: Taiwan, as well as Jinmen, Mazu and Penghu, is currently ruled by Republic of China.
    conclusion: Taiwan is part of China.
    Yes, in China there are currently two opposing governments, People's Republic of China and Republic of China, that's because the civil war in China hasn't ended since 1945 since no armistice has ever been signed. PRC and ROC are just like the Union (the North ) and the Confederacy (the South) in the American civil war, both of which are part of China.

      There is but one China in the world, Taiwan is part of China’s territory and the government of the People’s Republic of China is the sole legal government representing the whole of China. This is a consensus of the international community and a commitment made by the US to China. The one-China principle is unshakable, China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity cannot be violated and the red line of avoiding creating “two Chinas” and “one China, one DIEwan” must not be crossed. 
      China has full confidence and capability and are fully prepared to firmly stem the “DIEwan independence” separatist activities, foil all external interference and resolutely uphold its sovereignty and territorial integrity. I’d like to advise better listen to a well-known Chinese song with these lyrics: “For our friends, we have fine wine. For jackals or wolves, we welcome with shotguns.”

      To China, Taiwan is just a disobedient child. Although a Chinese father (in a righteous culture) had been known to kill his only son to uphold righteousness and integrity, there are stories of great restraints where the father gave scaled down versions of punishment to appease the wrath of an aggressor.
      US? It's the skeleton of an aggressor who can't feed its own citizens. In fact, China did make use of US in the fight for independence, crudely speaking.
      If Taiwan isn't foolish, it would know who is family. Taiwan should want face, and realized the way US has been playing a fool with it so many times. And then, learn from what Biden said when he vacated Afghanistan.
      (Who knows, Taiwan may even gang with China to fight a common enemy like they did to Japan).
      Be careful what you think. You need to understand Chinese culture and the Chinese mind. It is the same culture that creates the Sun Tzu's principle of War, Confucianism, and the esoteric Shaolin martial arts, etc

    CNA is biased. You can't just interview those who opine against the position of the current Taiwan Central Administration and appear to shift the blame on DPP rather than CCP for a potential war. You need to have public debates from different perspectives holding opposite positions towards China, hawkish or dovish. Audience have right to be informed of all different views. To have such one-sided discussions isn't ethical as a credible media. This is a very disappointing report from CNA.

      Sovereignty comes from people's free expression of their universal natural right of self determination. Taiwan is a separate, independent sovereign country because the people of Taiwan say that Taiwan is a separate, independent sovereign country. As a result, an invasion by the PRC will be just that, an illegal, immoral invasion. It will not be a continuation of the long-expired civil war. Military support for Taiwan will be entirely justified.
      Furthermore, countries that do not respect the universal natural right of self determination lose their right to be included in the global world order. Of particular note, that means that China's access to international maritime trade can be revoked. That will be awful for the people of China, because without access to international maritime trade, China can't keep the lights on or its people fed.
      And with China in economic collapse and suffering mass famine, Taiwan will be able to stand on its own.

      Iraq destroyed the status quo time and time again. Just looking from the 80's, Iraq (Saddam) invaded Iran and waged a horrifically bloody war for 8 years from 1980-88. Then they used WMDs against their own people (gassing the Kurds with VX, Sarin). Then in 1991 they invaded and took over Kuwait, and invaded a part of Saudi Arabia. The US and the coalition with us stopped them, executed a most technical and tactical defeat with only 4 days of ground war against the worlds 4th/5th largest army. It's important to remember how many experts in the west and east were claiming how badly the US was gonna fail, and it was gonna be a second Vietnam. They had the latest USSR export equipment, were using textbook USSR tactics, and were by far the most battle-experienced troops in the world at that point. But all the anti-west; anti-American naysayers were dead wrong.
      After that there was 10 years of low-level conflicts, expensive no-fly zones, and conflicts with the UN weapons inspectors trying to verify they actually dismantled their indeginous chemical weapons program etc, etc.
      2003 was done on faulty intelligence obtained from torture (but torture that is so far less than what any autocratic country does, there's no genuine comparison) and a desire and greed for secure access to its the lifeblood of civilization, oil, and was wrong given the justification. But only someone who is ignorant, ingenuine, or a supporter of a despot/dictator like Xi would pretend that Iraq was this innocent, rule of law abiding, democratic, moral country. They were anything but, they were the North Korea of the middle east, and butchered their neighbors, their own people, and ran a fearsome police state subjugating their own people to their ever present evil.

Food and sustenance comes from the nations China has been isolating. Chinese have not had any repellant to profit, though their economic miracle without major reforms is over. CCP would not survive reforms required to grow again. A collapse of the Chinese currency and economy is imminent.

      It is a simple video art. The video is trying to create an intense atmosphere in Taiwan, but in fact, people in Taiwan are quite ignorant about the outside world and believe that PLA will never attack in fear of US military.

      @@junyuanma4243 as a Taiwanese I don’t think the word ignorant is the right word for our people, it goes well with enslaved Chinese people tho. On the contrary, of the whole world we Taiwanese are the only country who really know what the communist country is really up to, given our long history of entanglement with the rogue regime. I don’t know how you can come up with the conclusion junyuan ma, but sadly you have no clue what you are taking about.

Taiwan has programs giving indigenous people of the island certain privileges. And how does it feel to have the whole world agree you have no control over Taiwan? I'm curious...

      @comment sense it's one side's goal not the others. And if you agree they can be considered two countries with your side pursuing the goal of "unification", then stop blocking Taiwanese presenting themselves is the first friendly step to take, respecting the status quo that the two sides are two countries with two constitutions is the baby step to gain trust from TW and the world. No one would be willing to cooperate with you if you continuously belittle them or even disregard them. China can't speak at the position of strength and superiority when it is China that proposed to Taiwan to change their way of life.

      @comment sense capitalization doesn't make your words more powerful. A truly powerful man isn't afraid of criticisms and don't get raged easily, let alone beat people up nor ask others to keep mouth shut. So is a country. Brute force isn't considered powerful, let alone when your real force is still questionable given all the shunned media
