China surrounds Taiwan in Major Military Exercise | DW News
[quote]The European Union has accused China of increasing
cross-strait tensions by holding military drills around Taiwan.
It called on all parties to exercise restraint. Taiwan has
deployed its own navy in response to the drills - which some are
calling a dress rehearsal for an invasion. China claims Taiwan
as part of its territory and has not ruled out the use of force
to take it over.

Japan, China Clash Over Taiwan War Scenario | Vantage with Palki
Sharma | N18G
[quote]Japan and China are locked in a diplomatic row after
Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said a potential Chinese attack on
Taiwan could pose a “survival-threatening situation” for Japan.
The remark, based on a 2015 security law, marked a rare public
reference to Taiwan in Japan’s defence debate. Beijing called
the statement “wrongful and dangerous” and lodged a formal
protest. The Chinese Consul General in Osaka also posted a
threatening message on X, later deleted, drawing condemnation
from Tokyo. Taiwan criticised Beijing’s “wolf warrior
diplomacy,” while the United States called the post a threat.
The dispute has strained Japan–China relations further.

Why China is furious: Japan's new PM sparks Taiwan Strait crisis
[quote]Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has pushed
China-Japan relations to the brink, just three weeks into her
tenure. At a National Diet meeting last week, she claimed that a
"use of force on Taiwan" by the Chinese mainland could
constitute a "survival-threatening situation" for Japan, hinting
at possible armed intervention in the Taiwan Strait. Beijing
responded with stern diplomatic protests, live-fire drills at
sea and an unprecedented wave of countermeasures. Why did China
react so strongly? Is Japan seeking to revisit its militaristic
past? What does this mean for the Taiwan Strait and Asia-Pacific
security? Tune in!

Taiwan Tensions Surge: China Blocks G20 Meet, Japan Rushes
Diplomat to Beijing | APT
[quote]Chinese Premier Li Qiang has declined a meeting with
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi at the upcoming G20
summit in South Africa, amid rising tensions over Taiwan.
Beijing condemned Takaichi’s recent remarks suggesting Japan
could respond militarily if a Chinese attack on Taiwan
threatened Japan’s security.
As China demands a retraction, a senior Japanese envoy arrived
in Beijing on Monday (November 17) in an effort to ease the
escalating diplomatic rift. The dispute has prompted China to
issue travel warnings to its citizens, underscoring the severity
of the standoff. The situation continues to strain bilateral
relations as both countries navigate the Taiwan issue ahead of
the high-stakes

While anyone who is not geopolitically clueless can see that
Trump was the one who told Takaichi to say what she said, I
suspect that Putin is the one who told Trump to tell Takaichi
what to say. Meanwhile Putin himself publicly supports Xi's
stance towards Taiwan. Can you figure out what is really going
on?
If instead of obsessing over Taiwan, China and Japan both first
focused on taking back the territory Russia stole from both,
they could have found themselves on the same side, as each would
have to support the other also taking back its respective
territory (if only as a way to reinforce the illegitimacy of
Russia's land grabs in general). This is not just my
recommendation, but Lai's also:

Unfortunately, Eurocentrist Xi and Eurocentrist Takaichi prefer
to compete over who can be more Eurocentrist than the other.
Xi's Eurocentrism has been extensively covered. What about
Takaichi's?

[quote]Takaichi met with Trump on 28 October 2025 at the Akasaka
Palace. The two leaders signed agreements on trade, minerals,
nuclear technology and rare earths. Takaichi also expressed her
intent to strengthen the US–Japan alliance. After their meeting,
Takaichi gave Trump a putter formerly owned by former prime
minister Shinzo Abe, a golf ball signed by Japanese professional
golfer Hideki Matsuyama, and a gold-leaf golf ball.[89][90]
During their visit at the US Yokosuka Naval Base, aboard the USS
George Washington (CVN-73), Takaichi vowed to bring the US–Japan
alliance into a "golden age", amid a "severe security
environment".[91][92][93] According to Trump's press secretary,
she also told Trump privately she would recommend him for the
Nobel Peace Prize.[94][/quote]

I especially like the advice of assuming surrender declarations
are false. With deepfakes nowadays, it is important not to take
apparently realistic content at face value. It is indeed likely
that, in the event of military invasion, "New China" will claim
immediate Taiwanese surrender as an attempt at self-fulfilling
prophecy, therefore Taiwan pre-emptively undermining this is a
good response.
I am not opposed to reunification in theory, but the worst time
for it to occur is under the Xi administration, and the worst
way for it to occur is via military invasion, which (especially
in combination with lack of will to militarily invade Siberia)
would end up serving the rightist vision of different groups of
"non-whites" fighting for domination over already "non-white"
territory while never thinking about taking (or even merely
taking back) territory from "whites".
The reunification scenario I prefer would be after Xi is
replaced by an anti-"New China" successor who openly
acknowledges Taiwan's cultural superiority compared to the
mainland. But so long as no such successor appears, keeping the
status-quo is preferable. I would even immediately switch to
supporting Taiwan independence on the condition that Taiwan
ditches democracy. Many people seem to forget that Taiwan hasn't
been democratic for very long at all:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan#History
[quote]with democratically elected presidents beginning in
1996[/quote]
prior to which the ROC was every bit as autocratic as the PRC
was:
[quote]the ROC government was regarded by Western critics as
undemocratic for upholding martial law[/quote]
yet was one of the best Counterculture contributors (song
repost, the one in the other topic appears to have been
deleted):

in contrast to the PRC's zero Counterculture contribution.
Democracy is not what makes Taiwan superior (contrary to what
False Leftists believe). Less Turanian blood is what makes
Taiwan superior. This is how we need to view the Taiwan issue.

President Lai wades into China-Japan seafood spat with sushi
post
HTML https://focustaiwan.tw/politics/202511200023
[quote]Taipei, Nov. 20 (CNA) Taiwan President Lai Ching-te
(賴清德) hit back at China's reported
suspension of Japanese seafood imports by posing with sushi in a
social media post on Thursday.
Lai shared the photos on multiple platforms, writing in the
caption that he enjoyed miso soup, and sushi made with seafood
from Kagoshima and Hokkaido.
His gesture followed Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung's
(林佳龍) call earlier Thursday for Taiwanese
to show support for Japan by traveling there and buying more
Japanese goods, after Tokyo faced a series of reprisals from
Beijing for backing Taiwan.
NHK reported Wednesday that China had informed Tokyo it was
halting imports of Japanese marine products to "assess the
monitoring of treated and diluted water" from Japan's damaged
Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, citing Japanese
government sources.
The move came after Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said
on Nov. 7 that a Chinese attack on Taiwan could qualify as "a
situation threatening Japan's survival," potentially triggering
a military response.
Lai's post appeared to have raised the ire of Beijing. A Chinese
government spokesperson, cited by the state-run Global Times,
said "no matter how the Lai authorities put on shows," they can
never change the "irrefutable fact" that "Taiwan is China's
Taiwan, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory."
