China - Taiwan Developments

[MunosMachos]

All mentioned. Read the post completely.

You deliberately do not mention that there was a big escalation in 2022 before the war.

Unfortunately they lost in 1949 and fled.

And we are not talking about recognition by certain countries, we are talking about the UN and international law. From that perspective, whether we like it or not, it is part of China.

Taiwan considers China as part of Taiwan...

Escalation in what? The preparation for and the Russian invasion on 24 Feb you mean?

Taiwan considers China as part of Taiwan...

Yeah. Considering the land masses, that's totally logical.

Yes they did but using PRC logic, they can also lay claim to the mainland.

So the bigger land mass has more authority? Should the world listen to Russia and Canada then?

You don't even know what I am talking about but claim that you did mention it.
Escalation in Ukrainians shelling each other.

"part of"
As in, "South Africa is part of the Atlantic Seaboard in Cape Town."

And Brazil.

The whole world sees US meddling as the biggest obstacle to world peace. Well, the whole world except for the USA and Europe. I.e the whole world minus <20%

The WHOLE world

Huh?

 

[hexagon]

Huh?

Exactly.

 

[ForceFate]

Exactly.

Not the same.

Taiwan was only part of China briefly due to the west.

I reckon land mass is a bogus factor.
Military "might" though.
May be a factor.

Britain was a tiny island controling large parts of North America, Africa, southern Asia and Australia.

Yes.
I know this.
How is it relevant to my post ?

Taiwan considers China as part of Taiwan...

Crimea considers itself part of Russia.

Interesting how all of a sudden the UN and international law means nothing.

Logic is irrelevant.

What's important here is the actual UN and diplomatic recognition of Taiwan. Get the majority to back Taiwan, then we have something to talk about.

Until then, it's a Moo point. You know, like Joey from friends? It's MOO - it doesn't matter.
