China’s Foreign Ministry said it had “lodged a solemn protest against Japan” Thursday in response to remarks made by Japanese Prime Minister Suga Yoshihide on Wednesday in which he correctly referred to Taiwan as a “country.”

“In his first one-on-one parliamentary debate with opposition leaders Wednesday [June 9], Suga, naming Australia, New Zealand and Taiwan, said, ‘Such three countries have been imposing strong restrictions on privacy rights’ to curb the novel coronavirus outbreak,” Japan’s Kyodo News reported June 10.

The RATs might suck up to China but Japan is too close geographically to be so apathetic about the situation.

And China still has an inferiority complex where Japan is concerned. This must be especially enraging to the filth in Beijing.

Taiwan (ROC) needs strong allies. China Joe will sell out virtually anybody to the CCP. They own him and his team admires the totalitarian dictatorship that is Red China.

Don’t worry, after President Asterisk’s Administration, Taiwan may be under PLA occupation and the point will be moot.

Hi.

I just wanted to post this and one other thing for the CCP and Xi to see...

Taipei, the capital of Taiwan. A country by any standard.

Oh, and y’all can go and reproduce asexually.

Next time you meet a Chinese official, ask him the address of the Taiwanese embassy in Beijing.

Ignore the hissy fit from China, stop appeasing tyrants. It has never worked before, it is not going to work in the future. China had a little conniption when the Indian prime minister spoke about expansionist powers of the past who were defeated and sent packing.

There’s gonna be hell Taipei...

Suga-san is known for his mal-statements, but in this case the broken analog clock happens to have been right on.

China just changed the laws so they can retaliate against countries and companies that place sanctions on China for whatever reason.

That means China is preparing to take Taiwan.

Taiwan’s probably the most pro-Japan country out there.
