President Trump advised Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi to temper her tone on Taiwan’s sovereignty to avoid jeopardizing a U.S.-China trade detente, people briefed on the matter said
It’s truly insane for a country to tell another country not to say shit about yet another country’s issue with 4th country so that the first country’s trade issues might not be aggravated.
What is even more insane, is bullying our allies while appeasing our rivals and enemies. At least Japan is being consistent here. This is profoundly embarrassing for the US, or at least it should be but I think we’ve sunk so low that weve become numb to embarrassment.
I would have to agree with Trump on this one.
If Japan wanted to really do something, it should cut relations with China and recognize the Republic of China as the sole representative of the Chinese people, just like Paraguay. Paraguay is the only country that recognized the Republic of China after it had fled to Taiwan.
US tells its dog to stop barking
Trump sure loves to play nice with American adversaries
If Japan think it can fight China alone, then they’re fully free to do so, China would not object either. But if Japan think America will cover them for whatever mess they start, then they’ll have to listen to America, who itself has just been slapped by China silly over the last 6 month.
A not so subtle reminder of rules and order in a rule based order.
