I think pre war it was a good destination to pick up easy degrees, it also was known for being inexpensive and having way more friendly locals compared to the west.Wondering how many Chinese live in Ukraine ? wondering who want to live there
Some history is in order. Before 1949, the government of the Republic of China (ROC) issued a large volume of long-term sovereign gold-denominated bonds, secured by Chinese tax revenues, to private investors and governments for the construction of infrastructure and financing of governmental activities. Put simply, the China we know today would not have been possible absent these bond offerings.
In 1938, during its conflict with Japan, the ROC defaulted on its sovereign debt. After the military victory of the communists, the ROC government fled to Taiwan. The People’s Republic of China was eventually recognized internationally as the successor government of China. Under well-established international law, the “successor government” doctrine holds that the current government of China, led by the Chinese Communist Party, is responsible for repayment of the defaulted bonds.
That would require America to stop threats and plans to invade China (at least through the KMT proxy), because it will assume an end to the civil war, something China would carry out if the security situation is safe.China is in default on a trillion dollars in debt to US bondholders. Will the US force repayment?
Is this Yellen gonna play the UNO reverse card on her upcoming trip?
That will have to include all the other rights and obligations of ROC that KMT did not take up, such as the status of Okinawa under Cairo Declaration and the right for China to occupy Japan and oversee reform to purge all aspects of Imperial Japan as afforded to one of the victorious allied powers, as per Potsdam DeclarationThat would require America to stop threats and plans to invade China (at least through the KMT proxy), because it will assume an end to the civil war, something China would carry out if the security situation is safe.
1 trillion is not that much relative to the low value dollar reserves China has. As I see it, as long as America honors the end of ww2, drops it's claims and let the civil war resolve (hopefully bloodlessly), China can honor some of the KMT's mistakes. There is also more money bound up inside KMT controlled areas, if these funds aren't secured, they might leak to US anyways, or even worse, sensitive Chinese technologies that are worth more than 1 trillion fx.
If America seriously entertains the idea of talking about KMT debt, it is not something China should dismiss outright, but China needs to make sure America is abiding by the relevant international rules first.
As I see it, any opportunity to needle America about it's illegal threats of annexation is a good opportunity, it forces them to back off in order to keep an appearence of legality. And if America truly runs out of steam and would value a mediocre cash infusion over continued threats against China, then that is a serious prospect which politicians should consider.
Sounds like yet another pathetic attempt by the Murican warhawks to impose another Century of Humiliation on China and the Chinese people.China is in default on a trillion dollars in debt to US bondholders. Will the US force repayment?

Yes, these are already rights afforded to China by international law. We just have to make sure America is on board with enforcing these rights just as China will be on board to use these rights when needed. And for that, it is obviously also valid to discuss payments to America per the KMT's obligations.That will have to include all the other rights and obligations of ROC that KMT did not take up, such as the status of Okinawa under Cairo Declaration and the right for China to occupy Japan and oversee reform to purge all aspects of Imperial Japan as afforded to one of the victorious allied powers, as per Potsdam Declaration
