Taiwan crisis in progress
The American expert specializing in international affairs and strategy, Irina Zuckerman, tells the site "Sky News Arabia":
- To understand the direction of these conversations, we need to understand that the fundamental difference between Washington and Beijing is not about any party, administration or incumbent leader, be it Biden or Xi or whatever, but rather the basic principles and structure, the geopolitical vision of the two governments and how they treat their people and with the outside world.
- These two visions of the two superpowers are incompatible in their essence, however the Biden administration is trying to make concessions on many issues, but there can be no compromises because Beijing’s vision is long-term and regardless of what it says publicly, seen the practical implementation of its policy whether it regards Taiwan, military-civilian integration or China’s role in world affairs more generally.
- For this reason it will not be Solution to the Taiwan crisis Ultimately only by the US and the international community, making it impossible for China to continue to interfere in Taiwan or through outright invasion and capture even if it doesn’t happen..
- China regards Taiwan as an integral part of its territory and will never recognize its independence under the current political structure, and until it recognizes Taiwan as a separate country, the threat of crisis will continue..
- So any breakthroughs we have seen so far or will see in the near future will largely be due to Biden’s willingness to turn a blind eye to China’s wrongdoing and challenges and his willingness not to lobby interests andvital concerns the United States in these matters
- So is China’s willingness to feign a working relationship knowing that issues like energy, the economy, and climate change are vital to Biden while he’s still on the field at home pursuing the same policy, continuing violations of the national sovereignty of the United States through active, industrial measures and promote a more energetic foreign policy in the Middle East, Africa, India, the Pacific and Latin America, against American interests.
- Any concessions we might see – the resumption of some trade deals and so on – will inevitably enhance Beijing’s prestige and, secondly, will be seen by Beijing as a bone thrown at the Americans in exchange for regaining market access, reversing the threat of sanctions
- China still needs US markets support its economy, but would never see it, in the current structure, as an equal partner to be treated as an equal, but as an inferior power to which it must be reduced to a dependency..
