NEW: China wants the world to know it's 'not going to get pushed around' on Taiwan, while experts say China’s recent military maneuvers may be aimed less at Taiwan than at the broader international community.

According toreleased in August by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, a majority of Americans believe that the U.S. should recognize Taiwan as an independent country and, for the first time, that the U.S. should send troops to defend Taiwan if China were to invade. Lawmakers from both parties have also said the U.S. shouldand commit to Taiwan’s defense, though others argue that could backfire.

In August, China recalled its ambassador to Lithuania and expelled the Lithuanian envoy to Beijing over plans for Taiwan to set up an unofficial embassy in Vilnius, the Lithuanian capital, called the “Taiwanese Representative Office” rather than the less provocative “Taipei.” “If you overplay your hand then you may find yourself facing the wrath of the P.L.A.,” she said, referring to China’s People’s Liberation Army, “and you do not know for sure that all of those countries that were talking such a great game before are actually going to come to your aid.

Beijing has good reason not to jeopardize its international position ahead of important events like the 2022 Winter Olympics, which it is hosting, and next year’s Communist Party congress, at which Xi is expected to seek an unprecedented third term. But if there is some domestic crisis that threatens the party’s hold on power, Ma said, “obviously that calculus shifts.”

POTUS if you care, SenateGOP HouseGOP show us you care SenateDems HouseDemocrats what the hell are you doing?! Y'all are allowing people crossing the borders, are they get their vaccine under your administration?! THANK YOU for stepping up, about Taiwan!

China better watch out for the US. Our wokeness will surely defeat their hypersonic missiles. We will cancel culture their azz if they refuse to use our preferred personal pronouns! Let’s get em’ boys! I mean girls! I mean people?

They have pretty much most of a continent to work with, why can't they just leave little Taiwan alone? They seem to have gotten along well without it.

They already are

China took seriously a statement 20 years ago that IT would lead the new century, not the USA. Other than starving its people, it is acting like the unelected leader of the world. I am so afraid for Taiwan...i hope the UN can help it before China sucks it up like it did the sea

If U support TikTok, shop at Wal mart or Harbor tools, or a 1000 other peddlers of Chinese goods, U are supporting China's aggression and war in Taiwan. I Thought U should know that, let's keep it real, no?

Joe Biden wants the world to know anyone can push the US around.

If it is, New York will simply suggest the act of 'Swarming' will be initialized. No need to follow through of course. We are mighty. Not worth it. Possibly, literally.

All Dictators are Dishonest and Scammers and Liars and Psychopaths! Psychopaths are in a constant state of mental tension, which is shaping up as a power struggle and a constant attack attitude towards their fellow human beings. It's about gaining psychic power over people.

Our collective ability upon irrefutable confirmation of ones desires will make this situation rather easy to solve from 'All-ah's' perspective. China will not need her in a future of Hyper-Capitalistic Socialism. Shouldnt be a problem.

Ya well, The world wants China to know, They still have to pay.

With the global adoption of Non-Binding Irrefutable Consensuses it will be Taiwan that will make this awkward on TV for Xi. Once consensus is established with an Entity's query of Participants via The Operator the results will be displayed on Convergence.

Taiwan isn't gonna get pushed around...

The government that is offended that their leader looks like Pooh Bear is trying to act tough.

🇨🇳🎙️💀

I hope that the United States will help the people of southern Taiwan improve their livelihoods and increase their incomes, without saying anything meaningless.

Taiwan is part of China, period

China is a paper tiger they want Taiwan to turn over the keys without a fight. They know it will be ugly if they go in with force.

Maybe we fought for the wrong side in WW2…. Looks that way.

I'm gonna laugh when China gets pushed around on Taiwan.

Uh China, aren't you trying to force yourself onto Taiwan

The US is like..

Winnie the Pooh is having a bad year...

What are we going to do about Taiwan? Let it go the way of Hong Kong?

America and its gang is not the world. There are 195 countries in this world. Get educated.

China must be more concerned about the world they can be defeated.

China has never owned Taiwan. It has been a separate island with it's own indigenous people for 6,000 years past, long before the first Han Chinese settlers reached its shores.

The same way that the US learned to live with Cuba in its shores, Chima must get accostumed to live with Taiwan nearby.

Yeah, sounds like late 1930s Hitler's attititude towards his neighbours alright.

The USA should allow a full embassy from Taiwan to operate here and make it clear that we will defend Taiwan from China in all military matters to include nuclear war. China is a bully.

Shows that MacArthur was correct!!

Maybe china needs to stop its commie bullying...

I was wondering where the Drum-Beats-of-War had gone. Refreshing to see corporate media being corporate media!

I’m engaged in this, because this is how was how I saw post about Mr Roger and decided to give it a try too and luckily it has been well with good results, so I highly recommend rogerkver__1

The Chinese are asking for trouble.

Joe biden will do whatever daddy ping wants him to. Grow up.

Taiwan getting support would mean: 1. Readmitted into UN 2. Attending international events and conference under its own country name without any other countries interference Am I seeing these happening or just tongue and cheek “I support Taiwan”?

Nor should the world try and push around China. Fkn with China just seems like a really bad idea.

it’s easy stop mass producing in china. declare that american cos don’t have long term plans in china. hurt their long term goals; and that will tame them. capitalism won’t allow it though.

Taiwan isn’t the one pushing anyone around it’s China. Stop bothering them.

America will defend Taiwan anyway

The World 🌎 is not going to be push by China either. Period.

Go, US, go!

BE CAREFULL WHAT U ASK FOR CHINA/.u are a commie nation ,so do not mess with usa/.

f'n a China. Stay strong. Taiwan has had too good for too long. who is pushing you around?

What world are you talking about? Maybe you meant the US! Bad News For Taiwan! The United States won't come to the rescue whenever China decides to take Taiwan by force. Boring Biden is COMPROMISED , will do nothing at all. Good luck you are on your own.

Just go home and stay home. None of your business. This is between two corperations that I do not care much for. First, how the fuck do you know what China wants the world to know? Second, who the fuck are you to step in between?

With this weak President, they’re right. Obama abandoned Crimea so….

Don’t mess with Winnie the Pooh

More global support? Can you list them here? Go and read China's history before supporting Taiwan. Taiwan is a part of China

Thank you!

Sounds like Japan in the 1930s. The Greater East Asia Prosperity Sphere. China's ego at stake.

'experts'

China should surrender to Taiwan. Or, The west should just wipe China out completely. I'm good with either if these options.

Trump 2024!

Everything made in China is Cheap!

Mother of Taiwan slay victim blasts Hong Kong authoritiesHONG KONG (AP) — The Hong Kong mother whose daughter was killed in Taiwan in 2018 on Wednesday lambasted authorities in the Chinese city for letting the man who confessed to the crime walk free, while Hong Kong blamed self-ruled Taiwan for “political manipulation” in the case. According to HK law, that killer is a freeman in HK now. What to do? China will retake Taiwan. It’s only a matter of time. Eh, HKSAR laws explicitly prohibit extradition/transfer of suspects to other regions of China. When HKSAR govt tried to amend those laws in 2019, the separatists rioted and burnt the city down, remember?🙄

Proposed China law would punish parents for their kids' bad behaviorUnder a proposed law in China, it's not just the child who would be punished for criminal or bad behavior: their parents could be, too. Parents being punished for criminal offences of children seems less dystopian than how the children of today’s politicians - and everyone else’s kids - will be punished for the ClimateEmergency crimes of their parents. NOW THAT IS WRONG,WRONG,WRONG WHAT IS WRONG WITH CHINA. sick n tired of hearing about lame china

White House mum on reports of China testing nuclear missile, says admin welcomes 'stiff competition'White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Monday would not comment on reports that China tested a nuclear-capable hypersonic missile, but instead, said the United States welcomes “stiff competition,” while maintaining that the Biden administration does “not want that competition to veer into conflict.” I'm optimistic that nuclear war will never happen among US, China and Russia. Because we all will die if it happens. But sad to see that we are on the wrong way. We should embrace peace, cooperation, not conflict and race.
