Taiwan has insisted it is a sovereign, independent nation, after US President Donald Trump cautioned it against formally declaring independence from China.

    It took only a few hours after Trump warned Taiwan not to try declaring independence…

    It’s been standing US policy going back to the Nixon Administration not to recognize Taiwanese independence.

    You can’t lay this shitbird at Trump’s feet. Go blame Eisenhower for his choice of VP.

      Yeah nothing current can be blamed on this orange turd. If it wasn’t for the ones that came before him you would be part of the UK and who knows trump would have been some sort of assistant to the king. Grow the fuck up and own the fact that us has presently fucked the entire planet by voting for these shitbirds twice.
