Dear Belly,

I would like to make a parting comment.

If the Chinese Communist Party sends troops into Hong Kong to quell the freedom demonstrations what sort of signal would that send to Taiwan and would Taiwan ramp up its preparedness for an invasion by Communist China? Can the Chinese Communist Party afford to make a bad situation worse than it already is?

Mr Opinion, I firmly think China, one way or the other will take control of Taiwan
The question is can America [ no longer promising to protect that Island] afford to confront China?

Dear Belly,

By what means do you think China will take possession of Taiwan?

Any means it takes it maybe be by arrangement with that country
Trade embargo forcing it, or even outright war
A chance exists some already working in Taiwan are undermining the government right now
Once war would involve America, not these days maybe
Hong Kong returns to mainland by agreement but it too maybe be forced long before that takes place
China Cannot be trusted

Told you this was all part of Trumps trade negotiations.

Fantasy old mate, outside America Trump does not have the support to throw a party
He however, as his threat then back down tactic is seen as empty, is trying to use every international event
Highlighting he seems very likely to be in the early stages of dementia
Maybe he has always been a few screws loose but his impact on world stock exchanges can be seen by all who will look
