China Put Trump In His Place

China is trying to divide the US 
and Europe on Ukraine!

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is making an offer India 
could find hard to refuse.

And is the US changing its Taiwan policy?

That and 
more on this week’s China News Headlines.

US President Donald Trump is 
making a lot of folks angry.

The good news is, if you make enough people angry,

you’re bound to make at least some of the 
right people angry.

Because a change to the State Department’s website regarding Taiwan

has sparked a fiery rebuke from Beijing.

Previously, on the State Department’s U.S. 
Relations with Taiwan fact sheet,

it said “we do not support Taiwan independence.”

That line has been removed.

Does that mean the US now supports Taiwan 
independence?

Who knows. Certainly not Beijing.

At a regular news conference on Monday,

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson

Guo Jiakun urged the US to immediately 
correct its mistakes

or risk further damage to Sino-US relation

s and said the 
US should act with the utmost caution.

Yes, I’m sure King Donald Trump is worried about

potentially upsetting people with 
wild things posted to a website.

In response, the State Departmentclaimed 
that the update to the website is routine

and pointed out that the US’ “one 
China policy” is still mentioned there.

A spokesperson for the department has 
clarified

that it doesn’t support any unilateral changes to the 
status quo from any side,

which also now appears on the fact sheet.

This isn’t the first time this has happened.

In fact, that line was also cut back in 2022,

although it was added back a month later.

Will the 
change hang around this time?

Only time will tell.

But Taiwan is considering a multi-billion 
dollar arms purchase from the US.

The talks are ongoing, but three sources 
said on Monday that the package would

include coastal defense cruise missiles and 
HIMARS,

with one source saying “I would be very surprised if it was less than $8 billion.

Somewhere between $7 billion to $10 billion.”

The US might want to send Guo Jiakun an edible 
arrangement as a thank you,

because his tirade was the best sales pitch possible

to make 
Taiwan want to buy a bunch of weapons.

The package is intended to demonstrate the US’ 
commitment to defending the island,

especially after National Security Advisor Mike Walt

z said 
he wished to speed up arms deliveries to Taipei.

HIMARS, in particular, has provento be 
effective in Ukraine against Russian forces,

and Taiwan–like the CCP–has closely been observing 
that war to see what works and what doesn’t.

But Taiwan isn’t the only Asian country looking 
for US weapons to defend against China.

President Trump and Indian Prime Minister 
Narendra Modi are discussing a trade route

through Israel, along with a 
boost in arms sales to India.

So I guess maybe Trump should send 
Guo two edible arrangements

The proposed trade route would run from 
India through the UAE, Saudi Arabia,

Jordan, and Israel to Europe,

basically 
circumventing the CCP’s Belt and Road Initiative.

This plan builds on one initiated 
by former President Biden in 2023.

In addition, Modi and Trump discussed an 
expansion of US military sales to India

starting in 2025.

India wants to modernize 
its military, and, since 2008,

the country has agreed to buy more than $20 billion in US 
weapons

, but these talks would expand on that.

Trump also said that the US would eventually 
provide India with F-35 stealth fighter jets,

although he didn’t say exactly when.

It looks like BRICS might have some upcoming 
trouble with internal cohesion and partnership.

But Trump has even more to offer India!

Like mediation to ease India-China tensions.

in 2020, Trump offered his help in…

Mediating India’s border disputes with China.

And during his joint press briefing 
with Modi, Trump restated the offer.

Trump: “And I look at India, I do see the 
skirmishes on the border,

which are quite vicious, and I guess they continue to go on.

If 
I could be of help, I'd love to help,

because that should be stopped. That's 
been going on for a long time”

Why is Trump so confident he’d 
be a good mediator?

I mean, what does he know about the art of the deal?

Modi himself didn’t react to the offer

. But the Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misriin a 
later press briefing rejected the offer.

He said the issue was a bilateral one 
between Beijing and New Delhi.

It’s a shame.

I think Trump could have gotten 
a gold toilet thrown into the deal.

China is set to build its first 
deep-water station under the sea!

Yes… Under the sea, under the- that’s as much as

I can do before Disney hits 
us with a copyright claim.

The facility is expected to become operational by 
2030

and will be housed in the South China Sea.

Which, I’m sure, has nothing at all 
to do with cementing the CCP’s illegal

claims to the area!

This would be like 
me building a treehouse on my neighbor’s

property and yelling, “Get off my lawn, invader!”

The station will focus on researching the

deep sea and exploration for methane 
hydrates and other energy resources.

No doubt they’ll share the information 
with other countries in the region!

This facility is meant to make China

look like a 
major scientific power when it comes to deep sea research

, particularly compared to the US and 
Russia.

Because while artificial intelligence

can help with this facility

, it’s also meant to 
sustain teams of scientists for several weeks.

Fortunately, the scientists already 
have lots of experience being locked

in claustrophobic conditions for weeks on end.

And after the break, just what 
is China’s position on Ukraine?

Welcome back.

China is sending mixed signals 
regarding the war in Ukraine.

In the past, China has offered to be a 
mediator in the conflict.

And last week, according to anonymous sources 
cited by the Wall Street Journal,

they made the offer again,

trying to 
play the role of peacemaker in Ukraine.

The WSJ reports that “part of 
the proposal involves Beijing

acting as a ‘guarantor’ by sending 
peacekeeping troops to the region.”

The White House didn’t say if they had received 
such an offer but rejected it out of hand,

possibly because any mediation 
done by China

would completely exclude Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy .

Although some say Trump is 
kind of doing that already.

And Europe also expressed skepticism,

citing China’s aid to Russia during the war.

China’s desire to get involved in Ukraine

might have something to do with 
the country’s mineral wealth.

According to the National Interest, “the 
combination of Russia’s military presence in Ukraine

and China’s economic

might give [China, Russia, and North Korea]

a window of 
opportunity to exploit the minerals with

far-reaching implications for global 
security and global power dynamics.”

And anyone who has a problem with it,

Russia’s gonna toss them right 
out that window of opportunity.

So, last week, China said it wants to 
be involved in the peace negotiations.

But then, earlier this week,

Beijing 
responded to a US proposal for

Chinese peacekeepers in Ukraine.

With a resounding “no comment.”

In response to the proposal, Foreign Ministry 
Spokesperson Guo Jiakun,

he’s had a busy week said

“we don’t comment on a hypothetical question.

China always upholds a just position on the issue of the Ukraine crisis

, and we’ve made 
this very clear on multiple occasions.”

I couldn’t agree more!

China has 
made its position very clear!

But not just.

It seems clear that all of this is part of some 
kind of grand game

between Chinese leader Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump,

but what are the plays? That’s unclear.

Some say China is seeking to 
exploit the growing US-Europe

divide amid Trump’s foreign policy shifts.

After all, at the Munich 
Security Conference recently,

where the new US administration 
clashed with European leaders,

China tried presenting itself as 
a stable and cooperative partner.

Despite being about as stable as 
a house of cards on a see-saw.

Perhaps China hopes that by 
stepping into a European conflict,

they can make a deal that will reduce 
or even remove European and US tariffs.

“Some analysts even suggest that China could 
exploit gaps in US-EU coordination

on economic policies,

making it easier for Beijing 
to navigate Western trade restrictions.”

Which is stupid because China isn’t 
going to dump loads of money into EU security.

China is not going to step 
in and fund all the things the US used to fund.

They’re actually strategic about 
how they use their foreign investments.
