#unification

Christopher Paun :mastodon:

„By @TheEconomist’s count, 70 countries have now officially endorsed both China’s sovereignty over #Taiwan and, just as crucially, that #China is entitled to pursue “all” efforts to achieve #unification, without specifying that those efforts should be peaceful. Moreover, the vast majority of those countries have adopted that new wording in the past 18 months, after a Chinese diplomatic offensive across the global south. (…)
China wants protection from the sanctions that Western officials have discussed imposing in the event of a Taiwan crisis. By ensuring much of the world recognises the legitimacy of its actions, it makes it unlikely that sanctions or even censure could be imposed via the UN. It also means that global compliance with Western-led sanctions might be even lower than has been the case after #Russia’s attack on #Ukraine.“
