Obviously, his visit was the impetus that allowed the Shanghai Communique but as it often does with multi-language agreements it comes down to translation. We used the word "acknowledge" vs the word "accept" but the Chinese word used in the translation strongly indicates "accept".
I have always thought normalizing relations with China was a mistake but you never know with the butterfly effect (which could have been the condor effect here) it could have pushed Russia and China together and we might still have an active wall in Berlin which could be a good or bad thing depending on how things panned out over the last 30 odd years.

it’s really not
how we handle it could be described as complicated, but the formation and existence of Taiwan is not complicated at all. not one iota. and we have a much more vested interest in the preservation of a free Taiwan than say, the Ukraine

I thought the comma was common sense, evidently it wasn’t you stupid frick. Thread title, subject of thread, evidently it went right over your head.

Well, Howard is a Geopolitical scholar.

Always loved this patch.

At least half of the NBA is legitimately retarded.

Taiwan is a country. No apologies.

The guy who said he didn't care if Chic Fil A supported slavery, he'd still eat there - is shilling for China?
One of these days, these dumbfricks are going to realize how racist China is, and realize they were just shilling for their own destruction.

Dwight Howard is not Dwayne Wade.

It’s funny that he got it wrong. But why does he have to apologize? fricking society we live in everyone’s gotta apologize and pray they don’t get canceled. It’s pathetic.

No it's not, dumb arse. The PRoC has never had control of Taiwan in their 75 year existence.

Guy needs all the money he can get. He’s got big child support bills to pay. Has like 6 kids with 5 different women.
Yep. He’s got tremendous overhead. Gotta keep up the grind and not piss off his Chinese Communist overlords.
