LETTER: China is watching the United States fiddle on Ukraine

The Chinese leaders are not fools. When — not if — they decide to force Taiwan to rejoin the mainland, all America will do is shake its fist in the air and announce severe economic sanctions against the Chinese. This country has no stomach for shooting wars to defend our allies from aggressor nations. Look at what is occurring now in Ukraine. And look how well sanctions are working to stop the Russians. Not a bit.

The Chinese know they have nothing to fear from America’s military might. We can host Taiwan’s president here — or send our politicians there — to proclaim our support for Taiwan, but it is just words.
