The only intersting of europeans (and commonwealth) ist to save and evacuate there citizenz. This only could happen by caesefire or armestice.
Thats why the europeans startet the peace plan, including 2 steps:
- the first intention is to evacuat the european citizens
- the next step is to offer a way for peace, if both sides accept it.
The europeans are very confused about the US.
The first political steps and the first shoots was coming out from Taiwan in a very aggresive way .
So America said that they will not help Taiwan if Taiwan declared independence, and the europeans trust that they keep their promise in this case, since an independent Taiwan does not exactly fit America's wish.
The first shoot of PLA to destroy taiwanese airports and streets was a devensive strike (thats why the europeans and commonwealth are concentrate in a evacuation fleet, to be send out from SUBIC BAY).
But this PLA strike seems to turned the americans. The US people were outraged, as much for the images of the burning 747 as the invasion of another free "country" (as Taiwan is often viewed as by the American people). The President of the United States has requested that all forces immediately retire their home soil on either side of the Taiwan Strait and that he was discussing what measures, political and military, could be implemented to stop futher escalation. His last statement hinted that American Forces may come to the
defensive aid of the Republic of China. The president has decided, with full the concurrance of Congress, to
engage in the defence of Taiwan.
In a Video Conference with numerous allied heads of state, inluding those from Germany, Poland, Japan, France, Spain, Italy, the United Kingdon, India, Austrailia, South Korea, Vietnam, the Phillipines, and Thailand, full aggreement is obtained to demand a complete withdrawal of all forces from the strait at midnight, local time, in approximately 12 hours. While not are all in agreement to pursue military means if necessary, all agree hostilities must end immediately.
In a rare show of unity, the leaders of France, Germany, the UK, and the US will meet in New York at the United Nations to protest the current state of affairs.
In this video conference the europeans offered there peace plan as last way to stop the war.
"End Hostilities - do not allow for escalation"
"A Battle in the Strait serves no one"..
Only one hour after germans chanceller was offering the europeans peace plan by tv (to international public) someone startet a massiv strike against the mainland to torpedoe the plan. This was offensive, and not a defending act.
The europeans ar blamed.
Didn't they can't wait a little bit and start the strike after the evacuation?
After that time the europeans ar not involved and could be visitors.
The europeans ar very angry
The small common ground between US and EU could break about that. It will break, when the US realy ar starting offensive in the war.
Also the EU could break about that (remember the Iraq?). There could be a coalition "of the willing", which following the leading US - and "good old europa", which don't want to follow the US everywhere.
We will have a "konstruktives Misstrauensvotum" this evening in german "Bundestag". May be the Bundestag is electing a new chanceller.
