Japan troops won’t get involved if China invades Taiwan, PM Yoshihide Suga says

[waz]

The US will make up the rest.

Well I doubt that. Try selling that to the US public....

 

[Suika]

That will depends on your own understanding of what sovereignty means.

For simple layman, I will do it in one simple word - a forceful military takeover and reunification of Taiwan Province.

And the good news it will be over within 48~72 hours with some fighting continuing in the urban for the weeks before they are all be weeded out. A likely scenario

When the late China Paramount Leader Deng Xiaoping reminded UK PM Margaret Thatcher of China's sovereignty over Hong Kong in his plain simple language, Margaret Thatcher was so shocked and emotional that she tripped down the steps of China Great Hall. That is history. Hong Kong is China today no matter how the British may attempt to distort it , like it or not.

Well, Hong Kong has been part of Chinese dynasties for about 2000 years.

Taiwan.. far shorter.

If you think US of A will risk a nuclear shoot out over taiwan..


Then Sleepy has finally lost it

That'll be part of the circumstances when the PRC literally has the capacity to attempt an invasion of Taiwan which is still 5 to 10 years away. But at that time, the JSDF perssonel should still not have much difficulty in staying above 200,000.

They won't. And nor will the PRC. It'll be conventional.

Circumstances and public opinion are closely linked.

Japan is doing the right thing. Taiwan is China's internal matter. why should the Japanese die in droves, while the Americans barely get involved and their mainland is far away from China while Japan is close. the US should fight its own war. history has shown whoever fights on behalf of the US gets destroyed in the process, especially post WW2.

 

[Beast]

If that's the whole story then why does Taiwan still not want to join he PRC?

So fast changed tactics? There is no room for independent of Taiwan. Doesnt matter, they like it or not. We are not democracy. Democracy is also not the best. Remember Hitler is voted into power by election and democracy.

Main point is , Japan, South Korea and US are not going to fight for Taiwan against PRC China. China can take back Taiwan anytime but we do not want a broken Taiwan back.

 

[Viva_Viet]

Peaceful unification is not agaisnt Japan's policy. Only a forceful is.

Just let them keep bragging/spamming same boring things abt TW again and again. U know, since the first day I came here, they already said" we can take back TW at any time blah blah...."...and 10 years passed already

Its tru that CN can take back TW, but she will suffer more economic sanctions from JP-US like Soviet and finally collapse.

Just ignore all TW threads, bro. Very boring, Nothing new.

So Japan wants no part of the Quad.

India is too useless to do anything.

Pray tell wtf is australia hoping to get out of its relationship with the Quad?

Australia is hoping to rely on America economic wise speaking, diverting away from the China market. 300 million vs 1.4 billion

 

[lonelyman]

Where does the Japanese PM say that Japan will definitely not get involved?

He just says that it is not definite that Japan will intervene and so China is on notice that Japan may join US to defend Taiwan if China tries to invade.

Smart from the Japanese, just like the USA, as they are deterring China just by hinting they may defend Taiwan while committing to nothing.

when push comes to shove, you seriously think Japan or USA would die their own soldiers to fight Chinese?

just like USA answer to India's help for vaccines, America First. (American lives matter first)

What matters is that China cannot know for sure it will be fighting Taiwan alone.

 

[Capt. Karnage]

First of all this is a Chinese source known for running propaganda. Secondly Taiwan is more than capable to kick China's arse. Chinese despite their nuclear weapons don't have courage to attack Taiwan. If Chinese were brave enough they would have done what Russia did in Crimea.

I'm surprised you still have the time to write garbage despite what's going on in India. >300000 newly infected cases, health system collapsing, lack of oxygen tanks, lack of vaccine, lack of hospital beds, people are dying on the street, mass open fire cremation. It's called karma, maybe that's what's happening to India now after all the years of idiot Indians writing garbage.

in RSS brahmin eyes, since only the poor dalit suffer, dalit's lives do not matter to them, dalits are just animals, that's why

China is very sure and even others want to pick a fight. We are second largest military with DF-41 ICBM for a reason.
