Putin Wants To Win Badly

50. China has no problem destroying Taiwan.

No problem whatsoever. In fact that is part of the point of the invasion.

Just like Putin has no problem with burning down and destroying Ukraine.
He will destroy Ukraine and its people to get what he wants.

Putin, like China, MUST obtain regional control before they can be superpowers.

Also for China, Taiwan has great symbolic value. It is a long time dream to unify all parts of China.
And symbolizes the rise of China as a superpower.

The Chinese (Xi) dream is to change the world, to impose a communist system globally for a better
world. Xi truly believes that China is the vastly superior county and will restore China to its rightful
place as global leader, same thing Putin believes.

So China, a socialist country, engulfing and taking over a thriving democracy, is symbolically quite important.

Of course Xi is doing a constant cost benefit ratio regarding invading Taiwan. And taking careful notes about Russia and Ukraine.

Xi is no doubt working on subverting some of the Taiwan government and people to be pro-china so when
the Chinese military hits Taipei, it is more of a civil war than an invasion. Half the population and government will be pro-china and just hand over the capital and airport to Xi.

Similar to what Xi and Putin have done to the US. Captured the GOP who are now Putin, and fascist puppets.
