#4There is a simple solution. If most of western world allowed Taiwan embassies China would have to relent. They can't afford having entire western world stand against them.
Unfortunately, that would require western nations to agree on something.

They can. The western world can’t afford to be without China’s manufacturing, though.

#9Europeans were quick to scorn Mr Trump’s policies but the reality is that China has been unfair in its trade practices.

The West should have alot of introspection about which battles are the right ones to choose.
How will history judge the current leadership of the West if they abandon Taiwan?
