Sure. Like the PRC is EVER going to pick up the debt issued by the Nationalist Government of China.
More likely they’ll say “Not me!” and point to Taiwan...

$1 Trillion. Big deal. The regime spends that in what, 3-4 months?

That being said, I would if Taiwan would/could be willing to pay this debt over time if PRC would recognize their existence?

Well, the PRC took the Nationalist Government's seat at the UN, so it seems to me that the PRC is on the hook for all Chinese-related debt.

I know what President Trump would do here. Simply cancel the US bonds that China holds, dollar for dollar.

If they point to Taiwan as the legitimate successor government to the Nationalists, thye make nonsense of their claims that Taiwan is a rebellious province of China. I doubt they will do that.

Carter recognized Taiwan as part of Communist China back in the 70’s at the demand of the Chinese.

Nowhere to point.
