I wrote this article to review the Taiwan question three centuries ago that ended in military showdown. It might shed some light on where today's cross-strait relationship is heading.

China's Belt and Road Initiative: Is it a "debt trap"? BRI engages 140 countries, covers 2/3 of world's population. But it has been frown upon by the West on the ground that "it loads small nations with debt." Watch my video and try revisiting this accusation.

John Mearsheimer's take in 2015 accurately predicted what would happen to Ukraine today. Ukraine will be "wrecked" if the West continues to lead it on. And Putin even used the same phrase he did "to create a neutral Ukraine." Sadly, nobody in Washington, Brussels or Kiev listened
