The Israel-Gaza war is “taking away the focus” from the conflict in Ukraine, the country’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has admitted.
He said this was “one of the goals” of Russia, which launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
And he denied that fighting in Ukraine had reached a stalemate, despite a recent assessment to this effect by the country’s top military general.
Ukraine’s counter-offensive in the south has so far made little headway.
This has prompted fears of war fatigue among Kyiv’s Western allies, with suggestions of growing reluctance in some capitals to continue giving Ukraine advanced weapons and funds.
China is not going to go for Taiwan.
Wish you guys would get this fantasy out of your heads.
My understanding is that they know it’s not worth it for them. But unfortunately the “glory “ of the “reunification “ makes it worth it for their leaders that want to be remembered for this.
Just like Russia never being stupid enough to invade Ukraine, right?
No. Ukraine is not nearly as strategically valuable to the US as Taiwan.
Try to focus on the subject at hand instead of resorting to analogies.
A lot of things in China are going downhill: trade, banks, real state. China isn’t just going for Taiwan, it’s projecting imperialism all around, even with India, another BRICS member. Taiwan is just the biggest mark. I wouldn’t cross off options for what imperialist despots will or will not do when they become increasingly desperate.
Imperialism? Get a grip.
