Bangkok – Donald Trump’s violent reconsideration of Ukrainian Americans can promote its territorial claim, although experts say that Beijing is in a way to see how to see it right now.
In the last two weeks, Trump has acquired Ukraine “It’s never started war,” Ukrainians said “One day it could be Russian” and questioned the legitimacy of the Government of Volodmyr Zelenskyy, while contraction American isolation position in Russia on his attack, starting with direct conferences with Moscow and voice positions Own Kremlin.
Before going to Washington on Monday, the French president of Emmanuel Macron said, “You can’t be weak in front of President Putin.”
“It’s not you, it’s not your brand, it’s not with your interest,” Macron said he said Trump. “How can you be, then the compelling in front of China, if you are weak in front of Putin?”
Like Moscow Claim Ukraine is right in the territory of Russia, China claims the Isle of Taiwanese car government. The Chinese President of the XI JINPING has not taken forcefully.
Trump on Friday he retreated Her earlier comments in Ukraine’s fault does not start the war, but his administration A general violent change in politics In the conflict in Taiwan, “Whether the United States could pull the carpet”, “RusSell Hsiao Executive directors of the Taiwan Global Institute.
However, Beijing certainly provides great care of Trump’s comments, it is difficult to act, he said.
“I don’t think that Xi jins will be so bright to kill iron, because Trump played in a certain thing about Ukrainian, he would do the same on Taiwan,” Hsiao said. “Trump is too unpredictable.”
Trump was quite popular when he left the office in Taiwan 2021 and was very credited when the US and democratically ruled the island approached each other.
According to the American law, the US is forced to supply Taiwan from the continent, but maintains the policy of “strategic ambiguity”, whether to reach the defense of Taiwan.
Recently, Trump has been more critically in Taiwan, saying the US should pay his military defense. On several occasions, Taiwan also requests a computer chip manufacturing business away from the US and proposed that this month earlier to accuse the rates from semiconductors.
At the same time, Trump has named a lot of Chinese Hawks in its administration, such as Secretary of the Secretary of the State Marco Rubio and Pete Hehseth defense.
Naho Allies were dead this month earlier, Hehseleth stressed that the US could return Ukrainian support to concentrate on the Asia-Pacific region and Leave European defense mainly to Europeans.
“The dissulation of the effect on the Pacific is the only one that can only be addressed by the United States,” South said.
A few days later, Rubio gave it together with Japanese and South Korea members. After discovering the edge of a Munich security conference, “Taiwan Strait is emphasizing the importance of maintaining peace as an essential element. And prosperity of the international community”.
In a movement, Beijing, the Department of State also removed an independence of American inventions on the island of the U.S. government to review the US government file.
“If I were Beijing, I would say why the United States Change Ukrainian support to Ukraine,” Meia Nouwens said at the International Institute of China Security and Defense Policy at the International Institute of London.
“Hegseth said that the Indo-Pacific, the US has priorities elsewhere, and I don’t think from Beijing’s perspective, he would be a consolator,” Nouwens said.
Ukrainian changes will allow the US to encourage a reliable partner, but it is unlikely, Beijing, Washington gives Ukrainian territory, somehow falling into Chinese hands to reach Taiwan.
“Every country, the wider lines of the US and Chinese country, are not necessarily facing,” Nouwens said. “He doesn’t want to give space, they both want to continue in the route that they increase their national strength.”
It is noteworthy that in the first term of Trump, in terms of its administration, he could be close to China, but in front of China, he took a harder view than others, Gaham said, the Institute of Strategic Policy in Australia with the main defense analyst.
Graham said the Americas “The Trump Administration would be” simplistic “in terms of Ukraine and confront the Trump Administration, which would apply similar to the situation of Chinese Taiwan.
“It is likely that the U.S. administration is attempted, making Ukrainians, making it a European problem, in terms of China, to deal with a relatively strong position,” Graham said. “I think it’s a dangerous view because of a terrible background. But it is hard to repeat with China.”
