This lady is really very smart. Her words can really make an impact in many lives. Salute 🫡

She caused a whirlwind in politics, social, economy, tourism, defence, security and etc

 

[Shion]

her PM tenure likely will be short, just like her predecessors.

Just return China back to ROC, problem solved.
No surrender treaty signed means ROC still the rightful owner of mainland China.

China go full force on her and Japan while trump say he will bomb Beijing if they invade Taiwan. Nothing is done against trump.

 

[Mountainnodew]

But she is daring and remarkable. Always hear the men in the house talk but when she speaks, the whole world listens. Guess she also can’t tolerate how overtourism has affected her motherland and her people.

Bcos US is far away, by the time the bomb arrive, Taiwan already hang China flag liao, but Japan is beside Taiwan and can really help

Once Taiwan is fixed, next is Japan. Of course Japan will protect Taiwan

Xi jiping will last longer than her anyway. Let her bark, stir and disappear.

[xllms]

Don't think is Iceland, should be Greenland, Panama, Afghanistan, etc. right?

 

[dragonsei]

It appears to me she is trying to create a proxy war and drag US into it. It is actually very dangerous.

But history show Japan have the habit to invade neighboring countries in ancient samurai times . 高麗王國 Korea and trying to use the path to invade China...
Wherelse China seem like never do that.

 

[Dracky]

China have to react strongly.

Japan took Taiwan from China and made it a colony. Then China took back Taiwan after WW2. CCP then defeated KMT in the Chinese civil war. KMT fled to Taiwan but CCP still sees Taiwan as a breakaway province.

Takaichi's statement is a security gaurantee to Taiwan. There is no way China will let any country openly support Taiwan's defence without cost. Even if China is weak, it cannot let Takaichi's remarks encourage Taiwan's independence. Even the US doesn't openly offer security guarantee to Taiwan.
