Will China invade Taiwan before a new congress is seated?
No . China has no intention of invading Taiwan . Must stop believing all the anti- China propaganda . Xi is leading a country with 1.4 billion people of 56 different ethnicities, bordering 14 countries. China is extremely complex. On top of this, many in the “ West “ have had their knives out for China for a while because it is viewed as a peer competitor .
TLDR, so I shouldn’t open my mouth, but I believe this article is decrying the fall of psuedo-capitalism in China and the return of MAOist communism, and everything is destined to fail. I would suggest that there are historical examples of economies being nationalized as a method or revival (not collapse) and the one that comes to my mind does not bode well for the our (the world’s) future. I apologize for this Reducto Ad Hitlerum, but Nazi Germany socialized and nationalized their economy to create their war machine, and the world suffered because of it.
Taking a page from the Hongxi emperor and his successor, who shut down the treasure voyages, and most maritime trade, turning China inward just as the West began looking at the global picture.
One would think that chip makers and other critical industries would have moved many of their facilities out of Taiwan years ago.
