Taiwan media reported that Taiwan was proposing to spend around T$800 million ($26.8 million) on the DAGAIE missile interference system from French firm DCI-DESCO.
Let’s hope the French don’t Flench.
If only it wasn’t all parts manufactured in China anyway.
Without the French, America would not exist.
Pretty bad when even France tell you to F yourself.
I wonder when will CCP start to pressure Xi Jinping to resign? Otherwise, it would hasten their demise, just look at what happened to the Soviets if CCP refuse to adjust and adapt.
China needs a good bloody nose.
Their leader is a moron.
We know there are cases of COVID-19 in China right now, but
they still refuse to be a respectable modern day nation on
topics like this.
China is technically growing into a first rate nation, with
it’s head stuck up it’s 1950s ass.
Without America, France would not exist. Mic drop.
That debt has long since been repaid ... TWICE.
I’m sure the Chinese are quaking in their boots with the thought of having to fight FRANCE! /s
Dont forget the stuff we Purchased
I was merely referring to the blood debt incurred for freeing a people from an oppressive government which we gave to the French TWICE against the Germans.
I discount the Louisiana Purchase because ALL the European powers of the day were losing their ability to retain their holdings in the New World. France would lose that territory one way or another. In a way, we paid them to just walk away.
The bitter pill was how we provided them a safe way out of Vietnam while we literally jumped into the line of fire. Now, I am completely unconcerned about saving their necks on the international stage.
The Taiwanese, on the other hand, have my respect and admiration.
