Comparing Ukraine and Taiwan is like comparing apples to oranges!
Polly Zhang Putin taking back Ukraine is a realistic ambition, as the two countries have inseparable culture and past. Even their languages is mutually intelligible. However, Putin and the Chinese Communist Party have never been in the same camp. Putin is trying to lead Russia into a new era of democracy with American characteristics. There are far too many shady deals between Ukraine and Biden. The Biden’s are terrified of these deals coming to light, and NATO will gladly sit on their hands over this. Taiwan is a dissimilar situation to Russia and Ukraine. Taiwan is the rightful owner of China. The question is not whether China should retake Taiwan, but rather if Taiwan will lead the world to exterminate the CCP. Taiwan is a democratic power recognized by the world. There’s absolutely no need to use Ukraine as a segue into Taiwan. China is just West Taiwan. It has long lost the trust of the world, and has few friends to help them survive. Xi will never rise to Putin’s prowess, and Putin will never see Xi as more than a short man with tall ambitions. |
