Taiwan is Chinese territory, it has always been part of China.

China will always see Taiwan as part of its territory which is rightly so.

Taiwan belongs to China.

Taiwanese are Chinese.

Macau, Taiwan and Hong Kong will eventually be absorbed into China by force or in a peaceful way.
I agree with you. All the divisions worldwide were caused by European invaders that called themselves colonialists for their interests.

However, I think it will be more sensible to organize a referendum for both Taiwan and Hong Kong citizens to ask if they'll like to join China.

Imagine a referendum in Nigeria asking ethnic nationalities if they still want to be part of the union. The outcome may astound us all.

Bro, for Taiwan and Hong Kong to be an independent country, they will have to go to war with China.

On the taiwan issue, while it sounds cool, China is not going to invade Taiwan, as much as we china fanboys and girls want it to.

Taiwan has a security agreement with the US. Once it is attacked, the US is obliged to intervene on its behalf, (yes, even with Sleepy granpa in charge, and sleepy has shown no signs of repudiating the agreement).

Also, a war can hit China economically. US would just pull its manufacturing away, and while the US may miss its cheap chinese goods, it would harm china more.

At the end, while China wants taiwan in the fold, it's not a fight that is worth it.
Tuale for u. China fails to realise that Taiwan and Hong Kong depends on exports to western economies to survive. Then China that not only depends on america and Europe for its export but holds $3.5 trillion of us and Europe sovereign debt. Imagine if america and Europe impose the kind of sanctions against Russia on china. Walahi china go sempe.

Trump recently said Putin was beating Biden's head like a drum. It's the obvious truth.

Now it's the turn of China to make a fool out of sleepy Joe. China will invade Taiwan and Hong-Kong and both US/UK will do nada other than sanctioning.

Iran has started pushing for a deal. They will conclude on an impossible deal and then use it as an opportunity to start another round of nuclear enrichment.

North Korea sef still dey observe and go soon find the best way to beat Biden's head.

We said it then, they called us Trump minions. This is what you get when you vote in ineffective oldies into offices. Nigeria is experiencing it with Buhari and some foolish fools also want to package Tinubu for us. God forbid.
Keep quiet abeg you don't know anything even an adviser to Trump said that if Trump had been re-elected he would pull America out of NATO.
You are a Trump minion Trump that you love to idolise is also an ineffective oldie because Biden is just three years older than he is.

To tell how Ignorant you are you don't even know that sanctions are mostly economic and can be an act of war to weaken a nation stick to romance section Trump minion

You're extremely dull

Taiwan can't even declare independence. Any day dey declare independence, China will attack it and the [/b]USA won't do anything[b]

Do you think China is like Nigeria that was created by the British?

China has been existing before England

A Chinese Emperor is the founder of Taiwan.

Most of the People in Taiwan migrated there from Guangzhou, China


Is just like London not been part of England, or Moscow not been part of Russia.

It does not matter what the Taiwanese want, is a Chinese province.

You need to read and stop showing how stupid and ignorant you are.
This is the only wrong part. That area is of core strategic interest to U.S.A and they will be forced to respond using military means. Which is why their agitation with Russia now doesn't make sense at all.

They will need Russia when the Asian war breaks out but now they have only succeeded in chasing Russia into the arm of the Chinese when that conflicts eventually breaks out.

The PRC and ROC constitution recognise One China

ROC constitution recognise Mainland China and all of Monogolia as been part of Republic Of China.

If ROC declare itself as an independent country, there will be a full blown war, and the USA won't support ROC
Oga small brain the only reason the USA does not outrightly support Taiwan as an independent country is due to legal technicality and nothing more.

That did not however stop Taiwan from electing its own Presidents which are not controlled by China, Having its own flag, Having its own passport, Having its own currency and having its own constitution.

Define independence again to me without using any of the above listed. I will wait.

USA going against China because of Taiwan, I can only imagine what USA is going to benefit from that. Lol.
When China is ready, I'm sure that USA will have a rethink if it really worth it. I'm sure that when USA was reaching agreement with Taiwan, most of the USA manufacturing companies were not in China, USA wasn't that immensely indebted to China and China military capability was nothing to write about at the time. Many things have changed between that time and now.
Ask yourself why USA envoy is going to China over issue, they equally know what is at stake should China invade Taiwan, and USA has to be compelled to step in.
China that runs a trade surplus of $350 billion with america is at mercy of the uncle sam
All the us coys manufacturing in china can move else where. Worse case scenario the us govt will half corporate taxes to draw them back to america
China holds trillions of dollars worth of us debt. If they want their money, uncle sam will turn on the printing press. But then what will china do with the money. They will either buy another country's debt or use it to import goods

The USA will fight alongside Taiwan if China attack it, if Taiwan declare itself as a legitimate Government and China attack, the USA will do nothing bro.

The USA is even against Taiwan declaring itself an independent country.

Russia should never allow Ukraine to join nato because it will soon become a threat to Russia.... I know for sure China is solidly behind Russia because China want to reclaime Taiwan and Hong Kong... if China should support Russia in the war, definitely Russia will support China also to reclaim Hong Kong and Taiwan... rub my back and I rub your back!.. that is just the game.. Afghanistan and Iran are also looking forward for America fall....
exactly. I keep asking. What will USA do if north Korea want to fraternize with Mexico and build a nuclear unit base there? Will a man go to sleep on the same bed with his wife when she is holding a knife? Won't he wonder why she wants to sleep with a knife? And now she's telling him "I have the right to bear a knife, sleep if your conscience is clear, blah blah blah.." No one will like to sleep on the same bed with a his wife holding a knife.

Only God knows how daft you would have been if you didn't learn how to read and write
You seriously lack intelligence.

Taiwan not being in the UN is due to a small technicality ONLY which China (PRC) is taking advantage of to ensure they keep them out.

In a brief explanation below I will open your small brain to this fact. Note the parts in bold.


Taiwan was actually a founding member of the U.N., admitted as part of the Republic of China (ROC), which also included the Chinese mainland. However, a civil war in China forced the Republic of China's government to retreat to just the island of Taiwan, with the communist People's Republic of China (PRC) taking over control of the mainland. When it became clear that the ROC would be unable to retake control of the mainland (where the overwhelming majority of Chinese people lived), the United Nations stripped the ROC of its membership and declared the PRC the rightful holder of China's U.N. membership.

The ROC has applied for membership as the independent country of Taiwan, but as one of five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, PRC-controlled China is in a position to veto Taiwan's candidacy in perpetuity. China has also forced all existing U.N. members to choose to recognize either China or Taiwan (and severed diplomatic relations with any country that chose Taiwan).

With the above, if you had a working brain you would see that it's all a power play by China (PRC) as that is the only way they could keep Taiwan out of the UN, nothing more.

This however did not stop 16 existing members of the UN from recognizing Taiwan as Sovereign which made China (PRC) to severe diplomatic relations with them as threatened.

I truly hope not. I would prefer they just give in and be part of China straight out. All the killings and violence and waste of resources are just not worth it. That's why I will respect Goodluck Jonathan always. He helped avoid unnecessary unrest and violence by not clinging to power when he could.

The United States will only intervene when the opposition is a small country.

China no be Vietnam o.

The United States will never intervene, at least not through a war.

Rather, they will sanction China.

With multilateral sanctions coming from the United States, EU, and Japan, China will feel the heat.

Between 1996-2001, America encouraged Ukraine to give up nukes to Russia in exchange for security gurantees.

In 2022, Russia invades ukraine.

In 1980, Taiwan started development of nuclear weapons and after completing all stages of weapon assembly, US discoverd and told them to give it up.
Now china is threatening taiwan.

Never give up weapons that your enemy fears the most.

Your security is your responsibity never put it in the hands of others.
But on the other hand, if many countries like you stated keep developing and having nuclear weapons just as it is becoming rampant today, what would have become of the world in the case of a little conflict, especially if it now falls into the wrong hands?

southern Cameroon was part of Nigeria until 1963.

Pakistan and India and Indonesia were one country until it was split.

China and Taiwan split after a civil war and the later has been self-governed since the 1940's.

So how does Taiwan belong to China if Pakistan won't belong to India.

Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau are Chinese.

On the long run, China will eventually take over those 3 province.
Very daft human. Taiwan since 1945 have been independent. They have their sovereignty. For your dull mind, Taiwan was under Japanese colonial rule as a result of the 1895 Treaty of Shimonoseki, by which the Qing ceded Taiwan to Japan.

If Taiwan today says they want to be alone and have already decided he themselves why bully them? Not your fault a bit. Just a dull brain you are

Read my post again.

China is already recognized as a sovereign country by the following 15 nations so far:

Guatemala, Honduras, Haiti, Paraguay, Nicaragua, Eswatini, Tuvalu, Nauru, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Marshall Isalnds, Palau, and the Vatican City (U.N. non-member).

Besides a quick question to you. If Taiwan wasn't independent why do they run citizenship programs? Would a country that isn't sovereign offer you citizenship of that country? If China owned Taiwan Shouldn't China own the citizenship as well?

I think the problem you have is the fact that Taiwan is also called THE REPUBLIC OF CHINA (ROC) However do not let that deceive you because that is separate from CHINA that you know which is known as PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF CHINA (PRC)

Taiwan is ROC while China is PRC

Taiwan as a soverign country has its own passport which is different from China

Find attached first the passport for Taiwan and second the passport for China
China runs a one country two systems, all linked to mainland, the central government.
Hong Kong was a democratic part of China, has its own flag and currency. This is also evisagased of Taiwan.
Remember Hong Kong was agitating between 2019 and 2020 for independence from Mainland China until President Xi Jin ping puts a strong law and pro-Beijing leaders that have now doused the tension, and the West and USA that were supporting them couldn't do a sh*t.
Very soon, the same will happen in Taiwan!
