    So China stops its war games around Taiwan now? What does the CCP understand by ‘peace’?

    As per Wikipedia citing a DW interview,

    Cheng stated her worry that Taiwan under the presidency of Lai Ching-te would become like Ukraine under the Russian invasion. When the interviewer responded that “the dictator caused the war”, she rejected the claim and described Vladimir Putin as “a leader with democratically elected”, blaming the invasion on NATO enlargement.
