Yellen Says U.S. Would Use Sanctions If China Invaded Taiwan​

• Treasury secretary comments during congressional hearing
• ‘You should not doubt’ U.S. resolve to use its tools

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the Biden administration would be prepared to use all its sanctions tools against China if Beijing moved aggressively toward Taiwan.

“I believe we’ve shown we can” impose significant pain on aggressive countries, as evidenced by sanctions against Russia, Yellen told lawmakers Wednesday as she testified before the House Financial Services Committee. “I think you should not doubt our ability and resolve to do the same in other situations.”

Yellen was responding to questions from Republican Representative Patrick McHenry of North Carolina over whether the Treasury would be as willing to use sanctions against China as it has against Russia following Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.Russia’s attack on Ukraine has undermined confidence that world powers would be able to prevent a crisis from similarly erupting over Taiwan, a democratically governed island of more than 23 million people and key global source of semiconductors. China has long claimed Taiwan as a renegade province and threatened to invade to prevent its independence.

Usa knows it wont work
However, china needs to have strong national allies

Especially in africa(nigeria), latin american and asia(pakistan-bengladesh-srilnka)

However if america sucessfully unite east asia(ASEAN), india/subcontinent, africa then it would be a big problem as we saw in russia case

Remember what we talked about to sell assets in West and redirect money back home to China if not it’ll be worse than Russia. It’s just plain stupid to invest in countries who are hostile and you have no control. The sooner Chinese planners wake up the better.

Not as easy as Ukraine, there is 100 miles of sea in between the two countries a lot easier to stop.
