Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi warned the West that it would be making a historical mistake if it sought to decouple from China in the interests of reducing risk.
“Whoever tries de-sinicization in the name of de-risking would be making a historical mistake,” Wang said in a speech on Saturday at the Munich Security Conference.
His comments came amid calls over the last year from the United States and the European Union to reduce their dependence on China.
Like it or not, China leaves us little choice if they follow through and take Taiwan. I don’t think there’s a thing the US can or should do about that, bit we sure as hell can’t rely on a Chinese administered Taiwan to run the state-of-the-art semi-conducting development and manufacturing they do now.
