Speaking alongside Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, Biden said any effort by China to use force against Taiwan would “just not be appropriate,” adding that it “will dislocate the entire region and be another action similar to what happened in Ukraine.”
China has stepped up its military provocations against democratic Taiwan in recent years aimed at intimidating it into accepting Beijing’s demands to unify with the communist mainland.
“They’re already flirting with danger right now by flying so close and all the maneuvers that are undertaken,” Biden said of China.

…sleepy Joe might need to revise his regime change strategy…these fellas do have WMDs and they do shoot back…
Anything to be said for the Chinses taking it down a few notches?
…don’t worry Nigel…the Chinese will be too busy supplying grain to all the countries in Africa…
Will Putin let them? Surely he needs the world to starve so he can hold on to a thin sliver of Ukraine and claim it’s denazified?
…in case you hadn’t noticed…China and Russia are besties these days…and, sanctions are a two way street…
Who would have theought the guy who would invade Ukraine completely unprovoked would then cut off food to starving people when things didn’t go his way? Seems more like China’s taking advantage rather than being besties.
…thought you would be all in favour of the lads embracing capitalism…
You think a lot of wrong things.
…cannot wait to see how you spin sleepy Joes fracked gas to Finland…haw haw…
I don’t have to spin anything, I’m not the one trying to justify an unprovoked invasion.
China suffers from chronic food insecurity – they are largest importer of food in the world FYI – but never let your editorial opinion get in the was of inconvenient things like facts
God another war now with China
This man is more dangerous than monkey pox delta covid a famine in Africa and an alien invasion of human flesh eating monsters from mars
This guy will only be content when nukes fly like a bullet to Beijing
All hail the curtain overlord!
‘Would intervene with military’.Will provides weapons to somebody else to fight a proxy war.Just like Ukraine.
(its a not so veiled message or threat to Boris,dont mess with slow Joe)
now go kick some cans,Richie.

Taipei the piper who calls the tune…
I can see it now and when it comes to the eve of a nuclear war or the destruction of Taiwan the USA are going to do exactly the same as what’s going to pan out in Ukraine
Wrecked and flattened then comes the turd sandwich they will swallow
Russian or Chinese it’s all the same
