      Pray they don’t, but I’m almost certain they will now that the US is appointing complete morons to every portion of the US government. The US won’t really be able to help until this rot gets cleaned out. China has four years before we can really help Taiwan again. (Or at least give them air superiority)

            Taiwan is incentivized to keep the latest and greatest local, so they can hopefully get protection from the USA and Europe
