  • Will Taiwan still receive aid?

    From Joseph Pereira@1:124/5016 to All on Thursday, December 04, 2025 06:30:13
    China has indicated that Taiwan must be completely taken over by China within a few years. Taiwan has agreements with the US and several other countries stating that it will receive aid if China actually attacks the island.

    But... If we look at the US, how secure is that commitment of aid?

    In fact, you know that any agreement with leaders like Trump, Putin, and Xi Jinping isn't worth the paper it's written on.

    The best Taiwan can do is prepare so that China knows that attempting to conquer the island would be so expensive that it would simply be too expensive in every respect.

    To this end, Taiwan must develop long-range weapons itself, because the question is whether the US will be willing to provide or use those weapons if China attacks.

    Trump cannot be trusted, and neither can Putin and Xi.

    A lesson the whole world should have learned by now.
