>But did they know Russia would go to war?
There's no way Putin did not consult Ukraine with Xi. He literally waited Winter Olympics of 2022 to finish so that it isn't overshadowed by his invasion.
>Xi saying he'll take Taiwan doesn't mean a shooting war.
You seem to think that he's some confucian wise man. He's not. Unlike his predecessor, Xi plays from Mao's playbook. Just like maoistic China took over Tibet and tried to take over Vietnam, just like China during Xi starts petty battles with India and escalates territorial disputes with everyone in the region.
Only way for China to control Taiwan without military is if Taiwanese wanted that. They don't. There are two political forces in there: one doens't considers itself as same nation with mainland Chinese, other is fucking Kuomitang that fought commies. There's just no way of arranging relationships between Taiwan and China that's acceptable for both sides. Yes, Kuomitang seeks cooperation with China, but not in the way Chinese commies want. Taiwan isn't like Ukraine to China's Russia - it's more like Poland.
