Venezuela has accused Donald Trump of making a “colonialist threat” after he said the airspace around the country should be considered closed.
The country’s foreign ministry called Trump’s comments “another extravagant, illegal and unjustified aggression against the Venezuelan people”.
The US does not legally have the authority to close another country’s airspace, but Trump’s online post could lead to travel uncertainty and deter airlines from operating there.
How? Taiwan is China.
That is true, Taiwan is the real China. But I don’t think we were arguing about names of countries here.
Taiwan is a province of China.
You mean mainland Taiwan?
Historical revisionism at its finest. Next you’ll be telling me Puerto Rico isn’t a colony, Korea has always been partitioned, and Hawaii doesn’t have a king.
Well the question is, does might make right? If yes, then you can’t complaint about Puerto Rico, Korea or Hawaii. If no then China has no claim to Taiwan. Make your choice.
China is the real china, taiwan being an offshoot of an exile. but yeah. no nations should exist to begin with anyway.
