Because China believes Taiwan belongs to it, China’s been preparing its military for the specific task of taking it over. It now has a strategy designed to overwhelm Taiwan before the US can intervene. Our new channel, Search Party, explains how Taiwan and the US are working to update their strategy before it's too late. WATCH NOW: th-cam.com/video/2QmIZcTzMgM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ycANU38a5BR_DhWJ

The other side of the same statement is that the leaders of victim-countries of PRC, never ever look at the maps. To win over PRC, one needs to be heavily map-savvy.

What I want to say is that China's map has always been like this. You can carefully compare maps from previous years; it's just that this year it has been brought up by various media.
You are right
And the map on the video cover is also not right,there is no hainan
It just proves that Chinese government is evil and is planning for world domination.
according to my map, the whole world is mine. I compare all the maps I drew in the last 10 years , it also says the whole world is mine.

Ignoring his own country doing a genocide but talking about others potential aggression… don’t you need to finish one war before starting another!?
Well you can't blame china. Why should they hold themselves to certain rules and border rights if the same thing happening in israel is ok by the west but if anyone else does it, it is a shame. Arrogance..
Fails to mention China is not alone in building military islands in disputed waters.
Vietnam has built more military islands in Philippine Waters.
Fails to mention the 11 Dash line of Taiwan. Where Chinas 9-10 Dash line comes from.
The Russian island claim is very easy to explain: it's a test to see how Russia will respond. Russia has a lot of territory in Manchuria that it took from China during the century of humiliation. China wants it back. So they are testing Russia to see how strongly they can respond here and will use that info to determine how to push their other claims
I think the Russians will simply ignore china's claims
well they are partners right? /s
Well China does have some leverage over Rusia

@@rasyidpangrango4690ya just ask Ukraine lol
I like the part that when china is in control of certain area you say "it's CONTROLLER by China", but when India is in control of certain area you say "It BELONGS to india"
It's too ironic, this is a video promoting China as evil, he doesn't care about historical territorial ownership. As long as China is evil, that's okay
@@user-xl2eg7qx1x but u can't deny that china has so many border disputers than is neighbouring countries
@@laveniaghosh8303 From a historical perspective, how much territory has China lost.
The land he called as being "CONTROLLED" by China (in Kashmir region) was the one that didnt belong to China before, but is controlled by it now. But the land that he said "BELONGS" to India (Arunachal Pradesh) is a state which has been a rightful part of the Indian territory since its independence, ocuupied by Indian citizens and the claim by China is nonsense with no backing. They already have problems with their claim to tibet which is disputed, let alone this so called south tibet of theirs lol. As he commented, wishful thinking. China is doing this just to satisfy their vain ego, assert their power and pressurize India.
@@lamewater772 The concept of a nation's "legal" territory is inherently subject to change over history, wars, and various events. If you firmly believe that a specific area objectively belongs to a certain country, you should take a look at the extent of China's Yuan dynasty's territory. The territories we discuss as "disputed" indicate that the narrator should not have any bias regarding their ownership. When you presuppose that a place strictly "belongs" to a particular country, your understanding of the word "disputed" has already been skewed. What you are doing is merely reinforcing and justifying your pre-existing stance with that same stance.
So why is it legal for Britain to divide the Sino-Indian border?
王莽同学，这个问题很好
If tibbet is a Chinese land it is also a Indian land india is so much connected with tibbet for centuries the budhhism brought from India , many Indians travelled tibbet as a tibbet is a very special place for Indians , if Tibet would independent it is ok for india ,but tibbet is now captured by china so in that case tibbet also belongs to us ,
Because in that time British in power and tibbet has own power you people don't captured tibbet in that time but presently you people killed the sovereignty of tibbet
Whataboutism, the classic fallback.
@@bg53rockylayek4 Simple logic, bro. If you are in power, you can legally demarcate the regional ownership, then China can be in power at any time, just as Britain once did.
Myanmar-China fence was built to mostly prevent drug trade in that region. During WW2, ROC sent troops to Myanmar to fight Japanese, but as KMT was defeated by the commies soon after WW2, some of KMT's land forces retreated into the forest in northern Myanmar. After KMT fled to Taiwan, it couldn't afford maintaining supply and logistics of this military presence in Myanmar, and (I might be wrong here) subsequently decommissioned these regiments. However, instead of letting them to surrender to PRC or bring them to Taiwan, they just left them in Myanmar. These militants became the local warlords and started to grow poppies to finance/support themselves. Note, these aren't from creditable sources because it's a dark history for both sides. The true stories are covered by both sides. Only rumors and tales told by people from that region.
But there are hundreds of thousands of drug dealers, illegal gambling, smuggle and even deal of organs are prevailing in this area, I knew some people who live near this border and is constantly harassed by warlords' troops and threatened, it's just a place of chaos, it's common to have small war there. As China is extremely strict on drugs due to its past history more than 100 years ago, the wall makes it harder for drugs to go into China as well as smuggle.
诈骗，毒品，赌博，中国境内的亡命徒与缅甸北部的军阀勾结，诱骗了很多无辜的人去那里，中国政府不得不建起围墙。
Because it's important to them, Huh selfish or do they know what havoc can be tested and proven as a break down in a countrys security safety and the people who are affected
Based on my understanding, those soldiers left/abandoned in Myanmar eventually moved to northern Thailand many decades ago (might have been kicked out by Myanmar). A lot of their descendants now live in Mae Salong and I visited it in 2012. I stumbled across a school which taught children textbooks donated by the ROC government.

According to your interpretation that the tenth dash line was added recently in this update. However, when I searched for maps published in 2019 and 2016, both maps already showed the tenth dash line next to Taiwan. Therefore it’s not a sudden change but a constant effort for Beijing to acclaim Taiwan as part of China.
是这样的
If you look it up 70 years ago, 150 years ago, the maps still included Taiwan
Did you even watch this video carefully? He said that 'it's not a first time tenth dash appeared on a chinese government map'

What about the video would you say is wrong? Calling it deceitful but not arguing why is anything but constructive.
@@yurigagarin9765 it's really ubiquitous so no real need to explain why. The author always operates on the presupposition that what is beneficial to the PRC is somehow just plain bad. "China did this, but at what cost???!"
If you can seriously study Chinese history, you can know that the orthodoxy of Taiwan belonging to China is even greater than the orthodoxy of all the states in the United States belonging to the United States, and if Taiwan does not even belong to China, then the United States should not exist @@yurigagarin9765

Adding to this, one of the most disgusting part about this ongoing conflict is, in an attempt to show China's supremacy China almost always downplays the death of it's soldiers, so many cases where Chinese soldiers just leave their own comrade's dead bodies and run away. Indian army carries all these bodies and tries to contact China every time to come and get their fallen soldiers, but they refuse claiming they aren't their soldiers but "terrorists", Indian army proceeds to give them a proper burial too.

@@ManuSaraswat
PLA that is deployed to fight the Indian Army isn't an Army in the usual sense. It doesn't belong to the Chinese people. It is the military arm of the Communist party of China.
Where in the NE are you from?
Love the way you brought out some info in the video and hide other info.
As you said, the Britans drew the line with India, and you gave it credit. However, the nine dash line also had a lot history behind it since 19 century till WW2, and you just covered it with "old hand-drew line".
Again, about Senkaku island, you as a professional geopolitical youtuber, you should know the US interfered history behind it, which is not mentioned at all.
Please note that in the video, according to the boundaries defined by China, the people there are wearing the traditional costumes of Chinese ethnic minorities, not those of India or any other country. This strongly underscores a point.
I agree
It is indeed chinese minority nationality costume.
Well what do you expect. This guy only speaks English.
i noticed this too
It doesn't matter
I’d definitely love a video on that fence with Myanmar, I’d be super interested to see how it’s effecting peoples that have mingled and traded for years and now have to give that up for the sake of control.
Maybe checking out southeast asian scam mills' human trafficking would help you to add up some other perspectives.
there is no conflict. China is just protecting smuggling. Johnny Harris misinterpreted the situation.
need to go there in person
Isn’t there a border fence between Mexico and USA? It has already disrupted life there
@@hb.raafay Did you use some kind of VPN to connect to this video?
I think there is a major point missing in this video: Namely, that almost all of these territorial disputes have not simply been created by China’s Communist Party, but have been inherited (and later exacerbated) from the Chinese Republic and to some degree from the Qing era.
These border conflicts are the result of the absolute mess that we call the 20th century, and unfortunately the video doesn’t really reflect that. By watching, one instead gets the feeling that these disputes have mainly been orchestrated by the modern Chinese government. And while there are plenty of gross violations of international laws and norms that one can lay onto Beijing’s feet, these border disputes have a far more complicated story than that.
I also think that this outlook on China’s border conflicts actually minimizes the gravity of the situation, because one gets the feeling that if China was to become a democracy overnight, these problems would go away. Unfortunately, they would not, which may be exemplified by the fact that Taiwan holds almost the same, if not larger territorial claims. Taiwan also argues that the 9 (or 11) dash line is valid - and it has shown little interest to compromise on this stance thus far.
And while I understand the message of the video was to make a point about the political weight of creating maps, its still important to at least hint at the complexity and debatable story behind these disputes - even if there is no time to explain them in a short video, which is of course understandable.
Exactly, it's well known that Johnny SIMPLIFIES much of his storytelling.
You make great videos too , and way more in depth,keep up the good work
Taiwan actually claims Mongolia as part of China.
@@huangec ^That is outdated information. Taiwan no longer claims this, and hasn't for some time.
Also, Taiwan is not allowed to change its claims without China getting very, very angry. No one in Taiwan wants to claim with a straight face that Manchuria is part of Taiwan, but the moment they don't claim that, they are saying that they aren't China, and then China threatens to kill everyone on the island.
That is why the ROC still claims all of the mainland, Mongolia (not as much anymore tho), Tibet, Xinjang, and some Japanese-administered islands.
Your video editing and designing skills are just amazing and very neat.
Anyone have saw the map of China of its previous dynasty?
Go to Taiwan parliament, and it is there. Even claimed by Taiwan for china?
Finally.. someone is talking about India's geographical issues with China and not just political or military or economic issues...

@@jaymarxnot exactly "new".. China has been doing this since decades and a lot of geo-political commentaries have been already made on that... it has already led to 1 full-fledge war between India and China in 1962 and a lot more skirmishes later in 1980s to 2020s...

You often mentioned the international law in places where China breaks it, but when it came to Taiwan you just said it has been independent for decades, which in practice is was, but according to international law - it is not independent at all and it actually is a part of China, regardless of what political system one recognizes as the ruling one over China, which in practice is the CCP.
This is such a biased channel with tons of double-standard narratives.
@@Jackiepkui gree with you
Try to declare independence from a bully country and see what happens.
@@DavidMaldonadoR Taiwan government in 1950s lost the civil war with the current Mainland government, and they shamelessly ask US to bomb Chinese people with atomic weapons instead of fight back with their regular forces for “justice”. I don’t understand who’s really bullying the Chinese people and who’s actually protecting them from invasion of foreign imperialist.
US knew that bombing your own people is absurd and unacceptable, they refused the stupid request and asked Taiwan to accept their failure. No need to mention the Chiang Kai Shek government constantly refuse and intentionally undermining China’s peace and democratization process.
US in 1945 was helping the KMT in democratisation process, but Chiang Kai Shek only wants to be another new emperor and rule. The current independent idea of Taiwan has no historical background, political evidence and diplomatic support from most countries of the world, which means no body support Taiwan for independence internationally. Not because people are afraid of China or other bullshit, because Taiwan government was a piece of shit and it’s still like this, so no other country is happy that he’s back in UN and make everyone unhappy.
And no legal reason or evidence in supporting the independence of Taiwan.
The fun fact: if Taiwan should independent, then Northern Ireland should be independent from UK too. Because a simply fact: UK government was bullying Irish people and a part of Ireland is already independent. The Northern Ireland is a sign of colonialism and imperialism. Why American people don’t go to help Irish people to fight for their legal rights?
@@Xiezi_0125 Your claim just doesn't make sense at all. Even after the chinese civil war ended and PRC gained total control over chinese mainland, United Nations kept denying that PRC is a lawful representative for Chinese people. And when PRC slowly re-gained global power with its military and world's biggest market, UN declared that PRC is a representative of chinese people. Not even a single country cut diplomatic ties with taiwan just because ROC is a piece of shit. That's just because they are scared of economic backlash. It's even nonsense to compare northern ireland to Taiwan. Northern Irish and British government officials signed 'Belfast Agreement' which makes northern ireland still be a part of UK. Taiwanese problem is totally different thing. And It's kinda reality that Taiwan is de facto independent country. I'm not saying that Taiwan is completely independent and international community broadly accepted it, but i just wanted to point out that your opinion contains a bit of misinformation and biased point of view.
Just want to point out that "There's nothing wrong with this these maps" is a mistranslation. “一点都不能错” doesn't mean "it's not wrong [to use those maps]". It means "You shouldn't make any mistake [with using standard maps]".
thank you that’s quite important
😂
Mis translation, interpretation is sometimes due to the viewers own agenda/existing stand point.
However, in the end, the one with the bigger stick builds history
I think it's better translated as " (this) must never be wrong."
As in, we cannot be wrong about this map, what we say *is the truth* .
I like that translation even more! Especially since they are maps that have random offsets to both the latitude and longitude.

I want to tell you an interesting fact. At the end of World War II, the then government of China was the Republic of China (currently in Taiwan). When the Chinese government went to these islands to re-erect boundary markers in 1946, because the Chinese government did not have the ability to sail far, it was the United States government that sent The warships transported then-Republic of China government staff to re-erect boundary markers on these islands.
If you are aware the then, ROC government was a puppet of the US, your fact isn't as interesting as it should.
It's still interesting, thanks :)

In 2011, Tajikistan ratified a 1999 deal (and a 2002 supplementary agreement) to cede 200 and 1,122 km2 respectively of land in the Pamir Mountains to China, ending a 130-year dispute. In the treaty, China also relinquished claims to over 28,000 km2 of Tajikistani territory, so its not a dispute anymore.
@@johnnyharris First of all, the boundary agreement signed by the so-called representatives of Britain and Tibet was illegal because the central government at the time was the Qing government and the Qing government had never agreed to the boundary drawn by the British. The so-called Tibetan representatives were purely directed and acted by the British. Second, the territory of the East India Company that India illegally inherited has never belonged to India in history. Even India was the only regime to annex a sovereign country after World War II. India illegally annexed Sikkim. Third, the United States is the first country in the world to recognize China’s maritime territory in the South China Sea. In order to allow the Republic of China to fight against the Japanese Empire in the South China Sea, the United States proactively recognized the South China Sea. When China was managing the territory of the South China Sea, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Vietnam How could this sea area belong to these countries when they are not yet independent but are still colonies?

So in the thumbnail china disregarded one island and replaced it with taiwan
Hainan island
This video characterizes China as a land grabber, which is not surprising. I think even people with scant knowledge of China know that premodern China has never been a land-grabbing belligerent. What they really mean is that Communist China is a land grabber. But is it? Communist China's territorial management has been studied by Taylor Fravel, a political scientist at MIT, who published a book called "Strong Borders, Secure Nation," concluding that Communist China is a land conceder and has not land-grabbed any of its neighbors. Taylor Fravel is a China hawk, so even he has admitted that China is not a land grabber. There is a land grabber by the way and that is India. Today, the territory of India is much bigger than it was in 1947, and all the land it acquired was through invasion and subjugation. You should find out how India's 'Seven Sister States' became part of India.
Talking about maps in 1912, the first full year of the Republic of China (nowadays usually referred to as Taiwan) after the fall of the Qing dynasty, the United States National Geographic Society dedicated an issue on China and with the issue it included a very large and detailed foldout map of China. If you go to the area close to Bhutan, you can see the town of Tawang and the surrounding area, which is clearly within China. Today, Tawang is occupied by India, and the surrounding area is called Arunachal Pradesh by India. In fact, as late as the late 1940s after World War II, the flag of the Republic of China (nowadays usually referred to as Taiwan) was flying high in Tawang. Today, it is the Indian flag that is flying there. And India is still promoting the narrative that India is a hapless victim of an expansionist China.

You definitely should cover about China-Myanmar border. The border is infamous among local Burmese. During Covid-19 China shut down border checkpoints and trade posts without informing anyone which led to the financial crisis of local farmers and traders. And China sometimes built border fences and barriers within Myanmar's territory. The area is also known for gambling, drug production, human trafficking and arms trafficking.
Wa State is pretty interesting
Yunnan province of China is viewed as the "Gateway to Southeast Asia and South Asia" and it is now officially promoted as such. There are many Burmese people living and working in Yunnan who speak Mandarin and those border areas are a blend of Burmese and Chinese culture, you see it with the usage of both Chinese and Burmese scripts. You can find many Burmese Muslim men selling jade to Chinese customers and Burmese are the largest foreign group in China as of 2020. In northern Myanmar, in the city of Mandalay, there are also many Yunnanese from China living and working in the city to the point that Mandalay has become increasingly "Chinese" in atmosphere.

Chinese are scared of these areas，because many China people have been cheated or abducted in the north of Myanmar, and engaged in electronic fraud activities in the parks there, it seems that the Myanmar government has been cracking down vigorously recently, but China people are still very afraid of the Myanmar border. By the way, the border between China and Myanmar has long been established, and there is no problem.
Myanmar have bigger problem on their own than the border between them and China. maybe stop the civil war first, and stop terrorize ur own people
Some Chinese perspectives here. 1. The fence was build during the pandemic to stop the spread of virus from Myanmar, where there had been constantly people trying to cross the boarder to reach the more wealthy china. 2. There had been human trafficking happening around the boarder. Many Chinese men and women are kidnapped to Myanmar and subsequently into force labor or even killed. 3. Drug smuggling. The Chinese government AND people had been 0-tolerant about drugs and are determined to stop it.
Thank you for this. An example of Micro-geography that needs to be known. Places that, to us, seem like tiny middle of nowhere places play a huge part in the world politics.
I once read somewhere that Aksai Chin has (or maybe had, because of Climate Change) the only mountain pass road between Tibet and Xinjiang that is passable all year around. I can somehow understand how Beijing would be a tad paranoid about loosing control over a strategic connection between two provinces where its reputation in the general population might have, to put this tactfully, some room for improvement.

What is missed, is the terrain in this flat plain is above 15,000 feet (4.5 km) high, unlike any other place on continents elsewhere. It creates huge physiological (& psychological) problems. In all wars, from times immemorial till modern times, it is the troops on land, that hold the land for that country. 1962 war proved it. Air force's role is secondary & as pressure point sea-warfare is tertiary. It is the will of men on ground to hold that ground that is crucial. Galwan incident amply proved it. At these altitudes (& in winter particularly) aircraft may not take off & tanks may not move. The will hold the land was not there in the Indian Army in 1962 (though a heroic bunch of 105 defying orders of superior officers)held the ground at Rezang la. In the heap of bodies taken as dead, 5 soldiers were found alive. This time too PLA made repeated forays to take it but couldn't (his time Tibetans with Indian Army did it). India still possesses tactical advantages.
Helicopters that are taken for granted, to land or pick soldiers & supplies, as made in the West are useless (Chinook & Apache of American make have service ceiling of 6km - there is no need to for them - while terrain demands higher performance). India saw that need & has to design own helicopters. In 1962, C-113 packet couldn't land or take off. Indian aircraft factory put a "jet pack" on top, to compensate for lower performance at these high altitudes. I heard that 18 ton "light" tanks with parachutes tied to each corner were dropped from air, as it is insane to ask for roads here. Many of them got reduced to heaps of metals & were cannibalised for those who were still mobile. It is a multi-dimensional warfare here, that if I start writing it'll become a book. Let someone write (not me).
In these skirmishes (by the dozen) both sides can't use fire-arms as per pacts made as PRC claims that India is a friendly country after 4 decades of bloody incidents (only in 1990s the then Indian Defence minister, George Fernandes declared that PRC is India's No.1 enemy relegating Pakistan to a minor place). So one sees a comic show of troops from both sides doing Sumo-wrestling at altitudes higher than M. Denali - at times with a contrived smile on faces. It is painful that reminds Albert Einstein prophecy of WW III. It seems that one of the goals in their 5 year plans is

1. The tenth dash line in the South China Sea has always existed; it's just that the previous maps were horizontal, and the South China Sea was displayed in a small section, where only nine dashes could be seen. The old version with Taiwan included has been available, so wouldn't it be reasonable to consult the old version map before making a video?
2. Originally, there were 11 dashes in the South China Sea, but due to the clear demarcation of the boundary between China and Vietnam in the northern Gulf, it was canceled.
3. When the eleven-dash line was drawn in the South China Sea, the surrounding countries were still colonies. If we really want to discuss it, their countries were established around China, rather than the eleven-dash line extending to their surroundings. As a victorious country in World War II, the South China Sea was within China's sphere of influence at that time (supported by navigation maps and historical records), and it was tacitly approved by the United States and others. Just because China is now a communist country and not your Western ally doesn't mean you can ignore historical facts.
4. There has always been a traditional customary line in the southern Tibet region, and the Chinese government (since the Republic of China) has never recognized the McMahon Line (falsified by the British government in 1935). Regarding the Sino-Indian issue, I suggest you look into the Sino-Indian War of the 1960s to understand who invaded whom and who initiated the war. India not only invaded Chinese territory beyond the traditional customary line but also crossed the McMahon Line before China counterattacked.
5. Taiwan (Republic of China government) used to make claims about the mainland, or it would be more accurate to say that the Republic of China government's claims were broader. This included present-day Mongolia, parts of the far northwest (part of West Asian countries), the Tannu Uriankhai (now the Tuva Republic of Russia). The Republic of China government also claimed that the Diaoyu Islands belonged to China.

Funny facts, China's territorial disputes with countries along the Himalayas stem from the borders that Britain arbitrarily drew on a map when it withdrew from colonizing Indochina (Pakistan and India's conflicts are due to the same reason). And the root cause of China's territorial disputes in the South China Sea is also due to the geopolitical needs of the United States to carve up the world at the end of the Second World War. As for Taiwan, it was included in China's jurisdiction eight centuries ago until it was colonized by Japan in World War II. As a youtuber, there is so much history you need to catch up on.

Great video, as always Johnny. I do notice one small flaw, though. In the South China Sea sections, you are accurate that China also has disputes with other countries bordering the South China Sea: Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam. However, there is one other country that also has disputes with the Nine-dash Line: Indonesia (my home country). The disputes with the other countries are mostly regarding the Spratly Islands, but not with Indonesia. So, Indonesia’s EEZ in the South China Sea overlaps with the Nine-dash Line, which is the source of the tension; I watched a video when Indonesia was planting an oil rig, presumably close to the Nine-dash Line (whereas it is within Indonesia's own waters), and that Chinese vessels were sent to patrol the site.

In his state, Ladakh, including Aksai Chin were parts. Thus India as inheritor had jurisdiction over these regions. Yet, in 1950s, PRC built a road across Aksai Chin (that the Indian authorities hadn't got even a smell of it), nomenclature-d as G219 in their maps - to connect Tibet with Xinjiang.

Taiwan claims everything that PR China claims (that includes all the territorial disputes with India, Bhutan etc.), it even claims Mongolia and various parts of Russia, Myanmar and Tajikistan. The difference is that the current party in power now views Taiwan as a merely being an island and Taiwan recognises the Mongolian passport. Officially speaking, Taiwan claims all of PRC and surrounding land and waters belonging to other Asian countries and it is known as the Republic of China (ROC) because it claims to be the legitimate "China" while the PRC recognises itself as the legitimate "China".
However, this is only still practiced because if Taiwan (ROC) were to ever officially recede claims to all of those areas it would give the message to the PRC that Taiwan is relinquishing its claims to the title of the "legitimate China" and so it would officially be seen as a sign that Taiwan (the island) is a "breakaway state" within the PRC (because the PRC claims the island of Taiwan and that because Taiwan has its own government). That would give the PRC the right to invade Taiwan in order to maintain territorial integrity and no other country in the world will be able to say anything because Taiwan is a part of China as the ROC would no longer exist.

TaNong mo SA usa

Can we first give a round of applause to the intro for this video! The hook combined with the rising tensions of the music is absolutely superb! Now to watch the rest of what I assume is already going to be a great video!
This was great, I’d love to know more about the different border disputes, good work.
people think this video is detailed and just ignored the fact that the author is biased😢feeling sad about those who without second thoughts believe everything he said
Please make a video on the border fence between Myanmar and China.
My degree is from the national wind institute at Texas Tech university. The Courses Required 4 course minimum in geography, Cartography and Atmospheric science. This video tickles my senses, the power of maps can shape our reality in ways we would never recognize. Just looking at a country’s map Is like a person’s name. It reveals a lot about the national identity, it’s goals and Allies.
I mean there was a short war waged just cos the google map was wrong...
@@PrograError not surprised at all, I’m sure this map could be attributed to a potential war. I believe Bhutan doesn’t recognize either Taiwan and China. So about 1.4 billion don’t have a country according to Bhutan 🇧🇹
@@PrograError He will not make it rather he will Delete your comment and Just stay there as if nothing happened..Dude is Legitimate Mouthpiece of CiA's And he doesn't fear that He Is getting exposed and Brought out for his cia and anti China Narrative of this China Bad Content 😂Yet...No one Notices it He Can Try to divert the Anything with his Team of extremely Proper editors and his so called Map..yet Can't rule out that he is a CIA Mouthpiece and Has been Directly working for them to make theze type of china Threat and China bad content for years now

This "business" of recognition has become more & more weirder in the case PRC & RoC (Taiwan).
It is all the off-shoot of the Chinese "One China" policy. That China is either PRC or RoC irrespective of the geographical facts on ground.
Use your steps to lead the eyes and don't be fooled! ! ! This so-called reporter is talking nonsense
Would love to hear more on the border fence between Myanmar and China as well!
It's only an issue for immigrants wanting to move illegally into China or refugees wanting to escape the ongoing civil war in Myanmar. Another reason I can think of is Myanmar's increasing Opium poppy cultivation. Drugs and drug trafficking are not tolerated in China given its history. China does not take illegal immigrants, refugees, or drugs into its territory.
你可以简单地将这样的事情与美墨边境墙进行比较
It like the border fence between America and Mexico
The Brits contribute to at least 50% of border conflits in the world today
Colonial countries are like this
That doesn't means china can redraw it's map at it's will
the brits are the one who messing with the map, do you ever read history?@@nickpartha8643
10:40 Aside China's claim on Tibet legitimate or not , but they really don look like Indiens my friend... They are Tibetans
They're Indians by identity.
China may have new map,
But India and Japan have NEW military
If they can indeed
New military refers to-----------A military without stealth fighter jets and 80000 ton aircraft carriers
Thanks Johnny from the Filipino people, for continuing to keep this issue on the forefront of the public eye.
Maps in general are awesome but in this case, when part of a regime’s weaponization plan to bully and push around its neighbors… it’s just so devious.
One of the most disgusting part about this ongoing conflict is, in an attempt to show China's supremacy they almost always downplay the deaths of it's soldiers, so many cases where Chinese soldiers just leave their own comrade's dead bodies and run away. Indian army carries all these bodies and tries to contact China every time to come and get their fallen soldiers, but they refuse claiming they aren't their soldiers but "terrorists", Indian army proceeds to give them a proper burial too.
@@ManuSaraswat又在这里胡扯，2020年中国向印度移交了至少30多个俘虏，在一个中国社交平台上可以看到，这里都没有那个视频里面很多俘虏受伤🤕，有给他们包扎。中国是团长冲在最前面阻挡印度士兵向前，这个视频里可以看到，他是幸运的活了下来，是我们的英雄。而印度由于种姓制度影响，士兵冲在前面。2020年那次印度死的士兵很多都是被打进加勒万河里冻死的。

I’d like to see Indian soldiers have the same pay and enjoy the same civil and societal benefits as Chinese soldiers. You prob got that crappy story through hearsay or your very unbiased news outlets lol@@ManuSaraswat
What bs, Taiwan claimed 11 dash line, china is just following it up
