#NBCNews #Taiwan #China
Yes one more usa colony , new McDonald’s opening soon there ,
The US is an existential threat to Taiwan and an existential threat to Chinese history and culture. If Taiwanese Chinese do not know that they are about to be killed, they must know that now.
The US is sick of being used ‘as an ally’ for Taiwan and dance the dance of ambiguity. It’s taking too long. It has changed. It now wants to have Taiwan, sink US hooks into Taiwan and eat fresh bleeding Taiwan meat.
The smartest move to secure Taiwan’s future for their youth is to quickly unite with China and cast away foreign influencers. This is the only way. There is no other way. The US does not have any affection, concern or heart for Taiwan Chinese or any Chinese for that matter. They are fake friends with evil intentions.
The DPP to Taiwan is like a delinquent boyfriend who is bad for Taiwan and messes up her head by hanging out with the wrong crowd. Time to mature, wise up and ditch the DPP boyfriend.
Nothing would excite and bring joy to the US more than to see a people fighting people of their own kind. The US is an evil creature that lusts for the spectacle of China and Taiwan fighting and destroying each other.
Beware! Beware! Beware! Trouble is at your door!
Couldn’t America just have a trade agreement with Taiwan . To bring all the computer chip companies and equipment to the US or territory. That’s what China is most likely wanting to control…. This would help everyone but China… That’s China’s main concern……
Thanks to Maskoffaid on youtube I’m so excited and glad they didn’t reneg on their words and they got me fast cash into my account
Trying to find logic on all this is impossible. All I see is crazy people. The world going mad.
Have to keep the arms sales going never ending.
your monthly payment is due
We wont make it to our 50 years
China sees this as an opportunity to do patrols and games.. every US Congress visit is an excuse for practice.. and they keep coming for free meals and dumb taiwanese money.. lol..
US is the world’s biggest trouble maker.
A pig can climb trees if one trusts a promise from U.S.
Pig actually can climb tree. But surely you can not trust anyone aside yourself. No eternal enemies no eternal ally only benefits are forever.
Just a warm remider, US army has a bad record in Asia, and US always sell there allies.
小小的（台灣❤），在（美國）….”真的”紅了！
Don’t trust the Chinese
IF Taiwan WAS China, wouldn’t everything that says “Made in Taiwan”, say “Made in China”?
China its time to let go, you have not been at war for many years. There is a vary big difrence from fighting your first fire fight and your second, our millatry stands ready (having been at war for the past 22 years). Our newest equipment is getting field tested in ukraine and our soldiers are experienced. You will loss everything if you try to invade and you will lose nothing if you don’t.
Let it go? Why don’t you let it go and mind your own business? They Chinese care as much as you do.
The U.S. Army Can’t Even Fight the Afghan Shepherds😂
@bo Bo We defeated the Taliban in 3 weeks and occupied their entire country for 20 years with less than 17 thousand casualties.
Russia cant even get near the dnipro river 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Chad Zahir ShahThe myth of the U.S. military is like a Hollywood blockbuster, fighting a few guerrillas and killing a few terrorists… That’s not war, it’s just massacres. A real collision of great powers is an absolute disaster
This is China’s last warning
Someone really wanting this conflict
😉💥Well, of course, China will love for friendly neighborly Taiwan to offer America military bases within their great sovereign countryside, but only as equally shameless who are equally balanced and equipped to make democracy blessings shine a bright light on darkness shamlesss shallow eyes and universal medieval hot-air bullies ballooning Pandamic bs from their Shadyside …😖💥😳💥😧
🫠💥Yep 🫨💥O🤷♀️
😊💥Ye 🤣💥🫣
Free Assange!
It doesn’t matter how many times the Chinese regime repeats the *lies,*
or how *angry* it pretends to be,
– Taiwan 🇹🇼 is still a sovereign country.
No government in the world, including the US, recognizes Taiwan, officially called Republic of China, as an independent sovereign state!!!!!
I disagree
@J_Jen
china will take taiwan like hongkong n macau – without a shot – they are bros – one family one ancestor 🥲
————
don’t have to give usa war just because usa is begging for it
Taiwan is not a country, ROC is a political body of China similar to PRC. Both combined is the greater China which is the country.
Where is Taiwan in the UN?
Pras Trial!!! Leonardo DiCaprio testifies money laundering scheme from China through Hollywood to Obama’s campaign
Watching the Congressional TikTok Kangeroo Court in action, one can see why the Taiwan visit took place. It is a Bingling Circus.
Should tw party change their name from roc to rot (republic of tw)?
US is determined to staet, yet another war!
Taiwan province is part of China. Tsai lost the election which means Chinese in Taiwan want unification. But Tsai came to the US to pay money to American politicians many times over the years. Kevin McCarthy and Seth Moulton need money for political survival. How much do they get from Tsai’s ATM? Corruption!
america will win… just like against arabs, and vietnam and hitler and russia… 🎉america will win start the war🎉
I love taiwan
The US has basically declared war. China is a wimp for not doing any about it.
US should stop official relationship with China and setup official relationship with Taiwan to support democracy. Should not provoke as a rat.
👍👍👍 🙏🙏🙏Cheer up Taiwan ＆ US God bless you. Taiwan has a right to form any government it deems fit.
👍👍👍 🙏Thanks US 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. Help Taiwan to defend its freedom & stop the bully. Cheer up🇹🇼 Taiwan. Dont become a HongKong.
bully is the US, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Cambodia
Didn’t the (governor) of Taiwan lose the reelection?
Can anyone tell me the exact reason why the USA would go to war with China? Wouldn’t that be devastating for both economies?
Surely china won’t be stupid to attack Taiwan. It will cause a big war with the U.S
Hands out of Taiwan, murica. And remove your bases worldwide.
Nice war is nice anyways
GET OUT US FROM TAIWAN,EVERY CUP OF TEA IS NOT YOURS……..
LEAVE.
World War 3 is imminent
Make love, not war.
Wow Biden is by far the worst president, the first to get us involved in 2 wars within 4 years.
Taiwan issue is confusing to say the least. The name TAIWAN is not Chinese derivative, sounds more like Japanese origin. Before 1949 mainland China became communist, who really represented the original tribe of Taiwan? I don’t hear anyone talks about it. Where does Taiwan belongs to? Does mainland China have the claim? The issue may be solved by historical value as to find out what native lived as well as the originan of those natives, may need to go back thousands of years.
it is true
All you have to do is read the history of Taiwan.
I’m just curious how the rest of the world will side in this.
Only a handful of non western countries sided with Ukraine.
How many are going to support Taiwan at the risk of not having Chinese money? How many western countries are going to risk that?
I don’t think China is going to risk war with their young men. They have more old people than young ones in their country now.
Everything was fine until Trump started placing a bunch of trade embargoes on China but to my horror Biden has decided to escalate that feud rather than quell it.
The Pelosi visit to Taiwan was a dangerous an unnecessary stunt that I think provoked China to work even faster to prepare for a Taiwan invasion.
I only hope China and U.S. get what they deserve for their war mongering foolishness and the rest of the world is spared.
The United States could barley protect us as one , just now getting over Covid at least almost think about the true colors the pandemic showed us , Fight the war at home
Sounds like Republicans are trying to pick a fight so they can blame on Biden and the liberals
pres pooh bear is weak
“’Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” Luke. 10:27
Amen
Nice 👌🫥
America is pro-war, let the Americans bear its burden.
🇺🇸💪💯X1000
I think the Chinese are bothered if they can win the war, China had a decade of drills but the US had more than a decade of experience in war.
So this is like foreign power interfering in the US civil war.
😱 I hope they brought their pocket knives with them! China put up a female, but she’s just as belligerent as the last guy they had. 😝
Up Taiwan
Here these idiots go again stirring up trouble in other people’s backyard. And you wonder why the world is slowly turning there backs to the US.
Good Move Finland and Sweden join NATO and Taiwan becomes our allies.Very good chess move,now we wait for they’re next move.😂
Godspeed to the Americans who will fight for Taiwan. 🙏
Need to protect those advance chips.
in your dream?
They will
We will gladly die for peace! Never underestimate Americans. Everyone in our country including awesome Chinese Americans HATE THE CCP! If we need ww3 for everlasting peace. We are ready and eager! Hungry for battle! God Bless the West and our Allies!
Draft us to defend another county ? We die and history repeats
我是黑奴人！ 我爱台湾！ ❤❤✌🏾
Glory to Taiwan
Sorry Israel, this time you left in the dark 😂
World 🌎🌍🌍 3 Coming Soon
Dear Chinese,
I will not use all kanji.
すみません🙏🏽
At the same time, officials from the Department of Commerce will travel to Beijing and Shanghai next week to lay groundwork for a potential trip by Secretary Gina Raimondo, sources say.
China should reject US’s request.
Go china don’t let Tsai betray china policy
send Taiwan 100 Pcs F 35 as a gift.
Then, we see how good is it.
No one takes china seriously anyway let alone “threats”
see how amurica started a war between ukraine and russia, it will start another war with china, amurica u,s are hypocrites
America needs to fight China it is the only way to shut them up
Bric’s and other countries are ready to replace the petro dollar if you don’t take action now 😂.
Just hoping that everything’s gonna be okay…
Taiwan is internationally recognised as part of China, including US
Taiwan’s constitution says both taiwan and mainland belong to China.
Chapter I General Provisions

Where? I’m not seeing that part.
@The Fix it is common misinformation, the current government in Taiwan is officially known as the “republic of China”
Keep coming … Americans … these chinese thugs are disgusting
U.S delegation arrives ahead of Chinese Biden balloon fly over
We better not fail, Tawian! 🇹🇼+🇺🇸! Global peace and prosperity!
Typical robotic comment. Your like a sponge for media propaganda. They say jump and you say how high 😂
Taiwan Is becoming high level officials travel resorts, to figure out how important you are in your country, just see if there is drills afterwards.
So basically world war III by 2027 :3
Well, I guess I’m going to start building my bunker now…
🐌The USA provoked the Ukrainian war by killing 14 thousand Russian children, women, and man in DONBAS. The Ukrainian people are just been used by the USA, BRITISH, France, Germany, and NATO, in a PLANNED PROXY WAR AGAINST RUSSIA. Do the people of Taipei, TAIWAN know they are next to be used by USA-NATO IN a PLANNED PROXY WAR against CHINA? The USA is arming Taiwan to give their Government the allusion they can win a war against China. Think about it. In 2014/15 NATO, Obama&Biden started the Ukrainian war by training 900 thousands Ukrainians and put lot of weapons including biologic weapons labs in Ukraine to give their Government the allusion they could win a war against Russia, most if not all of that 900K are now dead. TAIWAN will suffer the same destiny their island will be destroyed.🕷
China is bluffing. Nothing new. They are bullying small countries around the world.
The US government told me it’s just transit! What have you done? broken of promise! And I tell you that we will not give up on military reunification to solve the Taiwan issue! We will never break our promises! don’t blame me! u broken promise first!
U$A frothing at the mouth for war!
As a black American, how can someone threaten where I wanna go? When this attest happening?
How do we think we are going to stop China when our (chief) is literally paid by the ccp. No wonder he acts like they are sending birthday balloons over our country ..haha.. we are in big trouble people
China growls like a little dog but the US delivers the mail.
Ow. They arrived after the confirmed new EDCA sites in northern Philippines. Interesting.
We will counter Chinese aggression
Winnie the Pooh just wants more attention than Little Rocket Man.
China is they are really brave they’re should attack Taiwan so the world will know how tough they are militarily or just paper dragon
Hahaha China restraining just because Macron is there? Nuts. I want to see all the USA politicians enlisting to defend Taiwan and not sending young Americans to die in vain. Didn’t the USA agree to the One China policy? Oh, they have no honor, they promised Gorbachev that NATO wasn’t going to expand and voila, they didn’t honor it. Not big surprise here, the USA doesn’t have friends they only have interests.
Taiwan #1
Yeh, but it’s okay for China to meet with Pootin….
USA don’t make promises you can’t keep. Remember who your president is.
Republic of China is the loser of China civil war, it is US that should let go and allow it to stop existing, you can’t protect the loser of a civil war forever
