Sooner or later the invasion will happen, Taiwan has always belonged to China and they invented a senseless idiocy of separatism and surrender to the West like Tibet, being an ancestral Asian territory history must prevail as respect not only for the environment but for the population, which Taiwanese politicians do not do and only know how to sell, steal and betray their people.
Yeah pal--nice engrish.
Tibet was its own country, not a part of China.
The treat are just political. Even the PLA is not sure that a war would be a good bid.
