Only a matter of time, Xi has still got almost 3 years to make his move. Biden is getting weaker and more senile with every passing day. And if Biden steps down Xi gets Kamala who is even more incompetent, she will laugh like a Hyena the day Xi takes Taiwan.
Biden's got 2 more years provided that we see clearly to not re-elect him. There is still hope if Xi is going to take 3 years to invade Taiwan. China might invade earlier seeing that the West is weakened after this Russian-Ukraine crap. Russia basically fought the war on Taiwan, at least half of it for China.
That is super awesome, propping up yuan and devaluing USD at the same time so China will not be able to do as much currency manipulation anymore, or at least it will become more expensive for China to do so especially if all the other oil producers start to accept yuan for payments. You can't have it both ways, if you want to become numero uno in the world economy, then you can't have your currency stay artificially devalued.
The Saudis are just playing games to try and get the King a free pass for ordering the killing of that journalist. We'll see how this plays out.
Biden says, Saudi prince is a pariah, Putin is a pariah. He is going to add China's Xi to the list soon. Of course, North Korea's Kim, Syria's Assad and a lot more. But why Sullivan tried to get Saudi prince and UAE to speak with Biden? And both of them refused. Also, US has warships cruising in Taiwan Strait. Then we requested China not to supply Russia anything. This seems so ironic.
We were once the worlds greatest Superpower. Still the greatest country to live in, but Superpower? I dunno.
The US military is still spending about as much the next 10 militaries combined. So still a super power i guess. At some point China might catch up.
Because Taiwan is not the one that's invading someone; it's the one that's potentially being invaded. It's only natural that US wants to do more to protect Taiwan. Russia is the one that's invading another sovereign country. If Russia withdraws from Ukraine right now, China can supply Russia all it wants and the west wouldn't say anything and in fact the west might join China. Nothing ironic about that.
im talking about respect and influence. We were a laughing stock on the world stage with trump and we are seen as weak with Biden. Putin is calling the shots, not the U.S. We won’t send military aid to Ukraine because Putin says we can’t . Wtf? probably shouldn’t get into politics here, I don’t mean to, that’s not what I’m here for. But I guess I did
