That is exactly what I am watching daily with Taiwan and the massive shift in focus by the decision makers in DC. NATO is pushing to set up an office in Tokyo in case you were wondering.
Discussion
It’s probably wishful thinking
I’ve always thought Japanese leaders held our psychopaths at arms distance.
That’s what I want to believe.
I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if there might be an organic unification with China movement in Taiwan. China has a big problem internally, more than a billion problems actually, and a long history of those “ problems “ getting a bit upset
China knows they are a blue whale , yes big and all , but Korea and Japan are killer whales and using their check book rather than guns would be more profitable
The biggest threat in that part of the world is The United States of Europe
NATO fails peace prevails
There’s a very complicated relationship among and between the various nations in Asia. South Korea and Japan have benefited greatly under the “protection” of America. The question that none seem to ask though is protection from what, exactly.
China talks a big game but contrary to what is discussed in the media the CCP has zero interest in expanding its territory. The ruling party, however, is no longer willing to accept global hegemonic rules by the States. The so called “rules based order”. China and a growing number of other countries see very clearly that those rules only apply in one direction.
Long story, short, there’s no more appetite for hypocrisy. How this all ends up playing out though is what concerns me.
Once again it’s the teenagers with beer and car keys getting shit broken
USA ! We’re number one ! Yay !
The biggest no no in warped American foreign policy was to keep China and Russia apart
