Why Do You Think China Hasn't Yet Invaded Taiwan Like Russia by shogsman(m): 9:55am On May 23, 2022
I personally think even though the Chinese millitary has seen the fastest development in the history of millitary warfare, they are just being cautious and don't have the same hardcore attitude of Russia.
Yesterday Biden vows to defend Taiwan millitarily if chins invades. A country like Russia would respond to this threat by directly invading the next day but china hasn't reached that level of millitary might yet because of some lack of experience.
Reports suggests Russia is a little bit disappointed with them not invading Taiwan already and has expressed outrage about china accommodating USA's threat and not taking a bold stand like they did.
USA warned Russia of a very serious millitary response from them if they invaded Ukraine but Russia sees itself in a position to go against USA and all it's Allies head to head in a conventional war so aware of the threats they still decided to invade Ukraine knowing they are ready for absolutely anything.
And even with all the heaps of sanctions and threats against them they still carried on with Thier plans.
Many are saying china doesn't have that kind of power yet ,the will to defile the whole West, that is why they're being cautious.

What could edge china on to immediately invade Taiwan now is if they have the total millitary support of Russia.
Infacts there have been some reports suggesting china is asking for intels on Russia defense and offence tactics.
Of course china has also started it's war games,it even blew up a replica of a taiwanese naval base in preparation for an invasion so it might come sooner than we thought

It's very likely they invade regardless, Taiwan has unofficially declared independence already, USA is not adhering to the one china policy again and started making some bold claims like defending Taiwan millitarily if china invades,they wouldn't say that if they recognize Taiwan as part of china

Don't play with superpower, America remains the premier of modern military

A country with a staggering annual military budget of $773 billion, United States spends more on its military than China, India, Russia, United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, Germany, France, Japan, South Korea and Israel combined, and with almost 800 military bases across the world, US is not China/Russia's mate

The problem is obvious, USA and the west is not an easy adversary to have and china even though a super power isn't as hardcore as Russia,they don't have the kind of balls Russia has which is why they're being careful, Russia is a psycho, they don't care and they're ready to go to nuclear war with the whole of Europe and america in Their quest for Ukraine,china isn't ready to do all that, they don't have the experience, that is why they're mastering Intel from the Russians.
If Russia has the population and economy of china then USA would be no more I swear, they'd rule the whole world, because they don't get swayed by threats or sanctions, they would do their thing no matter what

China knows that US is looking for opportunities to curb its trade, steal its foreign reserve etc. China has to reduce it's US reserve in foreign banks and other economic risk first.

Finally a sensible opinion,you nailed it, china is already running a stress test on it's econy, simulating sanctions and taking a cue from Russia on how it's winning it's sanction war, Beijing just passed a law that will allow it seize an nationalize foreign assets in times of war, they're preparing

U are very correct. The best way for China to overwhelm USA is not by military confrontation cos it will really slow down their progress. What they want to do is to gain economic might over US, while still building up their military. That way they will pose more threat to the US. Cos US seing their economic success and weopons stock pile will just be a turn off for US in terms of war. This is not same way US Views Russia, US knows that Russia has highest nuclear stock pile yet with sactions and dedicated allies they can reduce Russia to barking hungry dog.

$700,000 with 800 bases, now divide it and figure out how much they spend on Thier own country defense.
They spend a measly $40b on Thiers, compare it to china that spends over $300b on Thier own country and in case you don't know china gets things and build things cheaper,so what that 700b would buy in USA china can get for less than 200b

And how is Thier sanctions on Russia doing now, the ruble is 3 times higher than pre war levels . You think you can defeat a country who has Chinese economy behind it. China doesn't even have to try,by 2029 it will overtake USA as the biggest economy, right now they're already far richer than USA,heck USA even owes them money,the $40b they gave to Ukraine was borrowed from china so they already won the economy battle. What is playing now is millitary might,you think if china isn't striving for millitary success it will spend trillions of dollars on his millitary, even president xi told the Chinese people a country is not a super power until it has a strong millitary

China will make a play for Taiwan only when Russia is done with Ukraine.


The same way Russia invaded Ukraine when their most important ally (China) was "free" from any conflict.


The reason being : In case of an escalation in the intended conflict (outside interference), the ally can always be counted on for support (in all ramifications).
