The setting up of a global mediation centre in Hong Kong will catapult the city onto the international arbitration stage, enhance its influence and bring in economic benefits, the chief executive has said. City leader John Lee Ka-chiu shared his outlook on Tuesday, just days ahead of top Chinese diplomat Wang Yi’s arrival in the city for the signing ceremony of the Convention on the Establishment of the International Organisation for Mediation. Lee said the organisation’s status would be on a par with the International Court of Justice and the Permanent Court of Arbitration of the United Nations at The Hague. He noted the city’s ranking as the world’s second most popular arbitration destination. “The mediation body will bring significant benefits on multiple fronts, including enhancing Hong Kong’s international status, significantly elevating its role and global influence in international mediation,” Lee said ahead of the weekly meeting of the government’s key decision-making Executive Council.

That's something china know it's coming. They will say it's only few troops. Then they are going to increase. They will try to push the red line. we can see that with Russia-ukraine. They want start the war. But if the timeline of war keeps getting delayed the chance of defeating china would be slim. Even now china is in favor to win. But I think they are waiting for full tech independence from western nation.

Realistically China expects to fight the US in the event of a Taiwan conflict. So whether there are troops there or not is irrelevant, and the bait will not be taken. What would be more concerning is if the US put nuclear weapons on the island; in that case there could be a real crisis and it seems the US is not yet bold enough to risk it.
