Crossfire War=Rapid Fire News-East Asia Theatre: Situation Taiwan

Taipei: I am not surprised it is not clear if any country will come to Taiwan's aid in case of war with China. As I have mentioned many times before it has long been reported China's military is rampant with corruption and graft while Taiwan's military is very well trained and equipped. I would not be surprised if Beijing experiences any serious difficulty it would cause enormous instability inside China and calls for a new government.

At the same time serious fighting could break out along the China/India border. At the same time there could be threats to international shipping causing a response from naval forces along the Pacific including from Russia. Moscow is not about to ask Beijing permission to use the South China Sea and based on recent news Moscow is more familiar with China's Defense Minister than Beijing.
