China just had it’s extremely entrenched corruption revealed to the world, such that a quickly successful attack on Taiwan is off the table, and they know it. China is in no position to wage war against anyone, and won’t be for a very long time.
Only in contrast to the combined strength of the US military + allies. They might still went with an invasion If the orange turd ever returns to the oval office, since the window for invasion is closing with economic downturn and demographic shifts and what else, they might not have the opportunity to pull it off again. So don’t fail the world now, Americans.
Same thinking here. China already made up it’s mind I believe and this is gonna be just another justification to escalate. Sorta like Russia saying “NATO encroachment and nazis torturing Russian citizens”. China gonna do something, just a matter of when now.
None of the parties were People’s Republic of China-friendly.
DPP is in favor of a Taiwanese identity and closer ties to the west.
TPP is a newer centrist party between the DPP and KMT that courted the youth vote but also favors more independence from China.
KMT is the old guard that ruled the island for decades, and while they favor “closer ties to China”, they’re a “one China” party with a twist: there’s one China and it’s legitimate government is in Taipei. Taiwan’s official name is the “Republic of China” and the KMT are the only group still really holding on to the idea that 75 years after they were forced to flee to Taiwan, they’re still a contender for the rightful rulers of all of China.
China will use this as an excuse to escalate further. More aggression and saber rattling.

Can you elaborate on these and how this would rule out aggression towards Taiwan?

Their capacity to wage war is going to severely diminish when they run out of young people
It’s the largest army in the world. They don’t need those bad missles.
Yeah, they can just throw the people in the direction of Taiwan.

They were going to do it regardless, if things didn’t go their way.
FTFY
Oh no, not another final warning.
They will escalate no matter what, but the type will be more obvious thanithe others

Beijing wasn’t going to be happy with any result.
