And Taiwan is more important to the United States than is Ukraine.

If China invades Taiwan it will be really interesting to see if the Western propaganda machine cranks into full gear—or not.

I honestly don’t know which way that would fall....

And Japan has said it would come to Taiwan’s aid.

Not to mention that the Indians at China’s back are easily capable of shutting off China’s ME oil spigot.

Taiwan is more important to the world.
They are a very few but very clever people.
This is one of those cases where it is the people that matter more than the place.

The place is important too, as a choke point for the western routes of international trade to and from Korea and Japan. But that can, with some cost, be worked around.
