ORGANIZATION CONSUL

LET'S HAVE A VIEW ON THE TAIWAN CRISIS.

EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Josep Borrell demands the EU should send warships to the Taiwan Strait. He also advocates the de facto separation of Taiwan from mainland China.

WHAT IS BORRELL TRYING TO ACHIEVE WITH SUCH STATEMENTS? CAN EU WARSHIPS REALLY INTIMIDATE CHINA?

The European Union's relevance with China is non existent. China controls Europe, Europe doesn't control China. China can shut down the European economy. Europe can't touch the Chinese economy. And the idea of European warships going to Taiwan is a it's a tragic joke because one there is no European fleet worthy of the name to if any European ships did make it to Taiwan, they would suffer the fate of you know shifts such as the Prince of Wales and the repulse.

NATO hasn't mobilized at all. And so it's hard to even think about NATO, putting together a credible military force that could operate on the ground in Ukraine.

The question has to come what force what German divisions are going to be sent to Ukraine? Does Germany have any divisions? What British divisions will be sent? We know they don't have any divisions.

What French divisions will be sent? Now they've got enough problems as it is, is Italy going to send divisions NATO has divisions on paper.

But when it comes time to turn these paper divisions into reality, NATO has nothing. They have a hard time getting tanks out of the barracks, they have a hard time maintaining equipment, they have no ammunition, their their manpower hasn't trained for this kind of fighting.

Which NATO army is trained in Division size, core size, combined arms maneuver warfare, the answer is only one.

That's the United States.
