Comments by "John Roberts" (@view1st) on "What is a 'multipolar' world? China says equality; Trump u0026 Marco Rubio say imperial rivalry" video.
The island of Taiwan is recognised by the international community as represented by the UN and the EU as being an integral part of the People's Republic China. Even its people identify as Chinese, albeit with a different government to those on the mainland. Under international law I don't think the PRC taking back by force what most people consider its own territory and overthrowing the government of the Republic of China would constitute a jus ad bellum, a legitimate reason for foreign intervention. And it's not like anyone can do anything about it given the massive military, political and economic power that present-day China wields. A fortiori the Republic of Ukraine vis‐à‐vis the Russian Federation, of which it was a part for most of its history until recently.
