US Races to Provoke Conflict Over Taiwan Before China's Irreversible Military and Economic Rise
The New Atlas
Dec 19, 2023
- The US is provoking China over the island province of Taiwan by placing troops on the island, arming the administration in Taipei, and increasingly encouraging separatism;

- The US officially recognizes China's sovereignty over Taiwan through its "One China" policy, yet unofficially undermines its at every juncture;

- Upcoming elections in Taiwan are subject to US political interference, which is extensive and undermines claims of Taiwan's "political independence;"

- Taiwan's economy depends heavily on the rest of China for continued prosperity and future opportunities the US is incapable of providing alternatives to;

- China is exercising patience to prevent conflict and the destruction of Taiwan which is an admitted objective of US foreign policy;
