DeSantis Tackles China: ‘Biggest Threat’ To U.S., Won’t Tolerate Invasion Of Taiwan, ‘Would’ Ban TikTok
Governor of Florida During an interview with Piers Morgan this year, Ron DeSantis launched a tirade against China, claiming that the socialist country poses the greatest threat to the United States and that he would never permit an conquest of Taiwan.
The comments come as U.S. authorities have issued increasing warnings that China is preparing to invade the island land and that a war between the two countries may break out in the coming years.
Because Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company( TSMC ) produces the vast majority of the world’s cutting-edge semiconductors, Taiwan is of utmost strategic significance to the United States.
Robert O’Brien, a former Trump national security adviser, stated earlier this month that if China invades Taiwan, the U.S. will destroy TSMC’s services rather than permit China to take them, making them” the original OPEC of golden cards” and giving China” control over the global business.”
O’Brien declared that” the United States and its allies will never permit those businesses to fall into Chinese control.”
During an interview with Morgan on Fox Nation, DeSantis was questioned about the rising unrest in the area and whether the United States may intervene if China invades.
DeSantis remarked,” That would be hostility.” It would be hostility without a doubt. Taiwan is a staunch supporter of the US. I believe that is of utmost importance to us, as well as to our important allies like Japan and South Korea. In my opinion, China’s growing and fall is the most pressing problem we are currently facing on a global scale.
They pose the greatest threat to our capacity to lead since the Soviet Union, he continued,” because they are much more powerful than Putin and Russia.”
DeSantis said,” I would ,” when asked if he would outlaw Chinese-controlled TikTok.
They are gathering so much information about our members, I believe it poses a security risk, DeSantis continued. There are a ton of some games and other things available, and, to be completely honest, Piers, I have young children. I don’t need our children to be exposed to any of this. It is unhealthy for them. The TikTok is more clean and sanitized in China. They’re also putting in a lot of good stuff around. Therefore, I believe it has had a negative impact, but that wouldn’t be sufficient on its own. What matters is how they are using that to their advantage against the British men.
