Speaker 1 (00:00):
That is the question looming over the Beijing summit. President
Trump and Chinese strongman Xixenping met for at least two
hours in private, and they talked trade. They talked about
opening up China's market. They of course talked about Trump

(00:20):
opening up America's market to Chinese goods as well. But
the big issue Taiwan. The Chinese leader said both privately
and publicly that the issue of Taiwan, which China wants
to reclaim, They want to take the island democracy and
reunify it with the mainland, is the biggest risk quote

(00:43):
unquote to US Sino relations. In other words, Xixinping wants
to eventually occupy in the next Taiwan, and he wants
the United States to get out of the way. And
the question now that is hanging over the entire summit
is what did Trump say? Did he say no? Is

(01:07):
he going to go ahead with the promised arm sails
to Taiwan to help beef them up in case China
does want to launch an amphibious invasion or with President
Trump needing to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end
the war with Iran. As gas prices continue to soar,

(01:28):
and the midterm elections are around the corner. Did Trump
make a deal with g swap China's help with Iran
and Trump abandons Taiwan? In other words, you can take
Taiwan g as long as you help us deal with
Iran and end the crisis in the Strait of Hormoz.

(01:51):
That is the question, and I hope that President Trump
did not abandon the brave people of Taiwan. Taiwan is
not just an ally, it is a strategic bulwark against
an expansionist and growing China that threatens the Pacific East Asia,

(02:12):
and I believe eventually the world we cannot abandon Taiwan.
If we abandon Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, all
of our other allies in Asia will eventually come to
the conclusion that they must make an arrangement with China
and fall under Beijing's sphere of influence. We cannot abandon

(02:37):
Asia to China. It is the key stepping stone to
them becoming the superpower of the world. And as for Iran,
we don't need China's help. All we need is a
decisive decision on the part of Trump to send in
the US Navy to smash the air defenses along the

(02:59):
coast of the strain, and to hammer Iranian dromes and
attack boats, and to forcibly reopen the strait, and then
have the blockade strangle Iran's economy and force the Mullas
to the negotiating table where they will finally surrender and capitulate.

(03:19):
We don't need China to get settle the issue with Iran,
and we shouldn't abandon Taiwan no deal. We must stand
behind Taiwan and end the war in Iran, with or
without China's help. If we appease China by sacrificing Taiwan,

(03:43):
the United States and the world will rule the day.
