Politically it's better. Ukraine has 16 countries that committed over a billion Euros. We're not how many countries would back Taiwan.
I mean over a billion Euros is technically correct, the actual number however is more like 150 to 200 billion Euros
Sorry, I meant over a billion Euros each. The US is at over €70 billion alone.
the difference is in Taiwan's case america would be directly involved and have already committed to this, it is likely Japan would also and some other countries are likely to contribute to. china wouldn't have a hope
In every simulation, China wipes the floor with the US in a conventional war against the mainland. You can look it up if you like.
already have, and every simulation says the opposite. dunno what nonsense you been looking at
edit: oh, lemmygrad. nevermind
Let's hope we never have to find out who's right.
