Trump's Greenland bid stirs debate in China about what to do with Taiwan
- For years, the U.S. government has urged China to show "restraint" in pushing its claim on Taiwan and to drop military threats to bring the democratically governed island under its control.
The article from Reuters discusses how former U.S. President Donald Trump's interest in purchasing Greenland has sparked a debate in China about the strategic implications of territorial acquisitions, particularly in relation to Taiwan. Chinese commentators and social media users have been drawing parallels between Trump's Greenland proposal and the ongoing tensions over Taiwan's status. Some in China have suggested that if the U.S. can consider buying Greenland, China might also consider more assertive actions towards Taiwan, a self-governing island that Beijing claims as its own.
