Is this really that relevant towards China though?

By peace or by force, the KMT must still go. It doesn't matter what they identify themselves as, as long as the civil war is ongoing and we don't have new negotiation.

Afaik, there are 2 outcomes to these local leadership changes. Either a more militant leader rises and they may provoke an incident causing the civil war to go hot again, which favors Beijing due to the balance of forces. Or a "friendly" leader comes and make token negotiations to buy time. Which also favors Beijing since given time, they will increase much more in power.

Possibly it is good that Tsai ingwen is gone because she constantly tries to call an American invasion into China's heart. But again, if we have to fight sooner or later, its not bad that one of the rebels fire the first shot and give the justification to light up all the invaders and get the battle done with.

KMT is undeniably better. DPP are full CIA stooges. At least KMT aren't as stupid as DPP

Of course I wouldn't pay that much attention to these polls now because I am certain that CIA will start playing its cards as the election day gets closer

Iran Nuclear Deal is officially dead but it wont be formally announced.

Well we all know it’s been dead for months. Is there any reason to keep it “alive.”

Women: President Biden. Would you please announce that JCPOA is dead? Can you just announce that?

Biden: No.

Women: No, why not?

Biden: A lot of reasons. It is dead but we’re not gonna announce it.

Both parties are full of CIA stooges, it really doesn't matter which party gets into power on that island, reunification is coming by 2027, one way or another.

I still think Iran shouldn't get nukes.

It's much better if they get up armed conventionally because that forces NATO to waste much limited resources on them. And American ultranationalists will entertain the delusion of being able to invade them, increasing the chance of a fatal misstep.

China can start a multi step plan to make Iran's forces a match for America in a regional war. Firstly transferring the knowhow to make top-down attack atgm and improved drones on a large scale, secondly selling anti stealth radars, export hq-16 and hq-9. Finally, the DF-21D can be made ready for Iranian purchase. By now, its an old missile and USA will soon acquire similar capability through its hypersonic/MARV program anyways.

Previously China has okayed the sale of basic DF-21 to Saudi Arabia, so it is not without precedence.
