China affairs specialist Einar Tangen joins HT's Aayesha Varma to discuss Taiwan, U.S.–China strategic rivalry, Beijing’s economic rise and the future of India–China relations. Tangen argues that a blockade—not an invasion—would be China’s most consequential coercive option against Taiwan, while contending that Washington’s policies are driven principally by economic competition. The conversation also examines China’s manufacturing model, BRICS, de-dollarisation, North Korea–Russia ties, South China Sea tensions and whether India and China can cooperate without becoming opposing geopolitical blocs. Tune in for more.

You spoke the fact and truth, sir. I am an Indian living in Shenzhen, I can't even set a up factory in India because of the corruption from lower level to the higher level.
I hand an investment some years bag in India I closed down and moved to China.

That’s right! China simply needs to blockade Taiwan’s sea and air routes for two to three months; the island would be brought to its knees—without a single shot being fired—and forced to raise the white flag of surrender.

Further to that you can see Iran has 1000s upon 1000's of missiles to retaliate and push back the US and Israel forces, just stretch your imagination further, guess how many missiles (the military possesses so many varieties as well) China has before invading Taiwan and in additional how many can they produce when the war starts. Bearing in mind China is a manufacturing powerhouse. You do not need to be a China expert to come to this concluding remark.

This is a very diplomatic presentation of the differences between India and China. He would be a fantastic ambassador for China.

ROC-Taiwan becoming independent will be a direct assault on PRC-China as ROC will immediately become a vassal of the US...

Quite simply as well, if the roles of the US and the PRC were reversed, the US will never allow ROC-Taiwan to become independent... 🥸🤔🧐🤷

The moment China declares she's coming, Taiwan will welcome the Mainland with the reddest carpet one could find. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

It’s funny; since when China’s leaders have been wanting to take Taiwan by force? Time and again, China’s leaders reiterate that Taiwan is an inseparable part of China. No one would want to damage or destroy his own territory! Right? As simple as that!

US is also hollowing out the advanced and high end semiconductor manufacturing in Taiwan. At the end of the day, the US will abandon Taiwan, as it should since Taiwan is China’s internal political matter to resolve. The folks in Taiwan should wise-up, and learn from the mistakes by the Ukrainians being led and used as a fodder by the US to fight its proxy war against Russia

"Don't believe me, come to China to experience yourself". That's very powerful!

Everything that the west is accusing China of, especially their way of characterizing their leaders, is just pure projection.

@rnwaterpurification1030 2 days ago

China probably will not attack Taiwan for it still chinese. It will be peaceful. The most China will impose a blockage n ROC will caved in

Yes, China and India working together would be very beneficial to the people of both nations.

I’m afraid that is not in the cards. India’s ruling class idolizes the west. They are fanciful people with big ideas, lots of grandiose pronouncements but no pragmatism. They are diametrically different from their counterparts from China, who are pragmatic, realistic, humble and effective — they talk little but get the job done.

China ought not to wait for India. Just carry on.
