Retired Major General and Liberal Senator Jim Dolan told Sky News Australia that any attempt by China to forcefully withdraw Taiwan could lead to a major military conflict.
Symbolic picture
The world has so far suffered two World War. In this, we have seen how dangerous the Second World War has proved to be for human civilization. At the same time, now it seems that the third world war is going to break out in the world. In fact, a former Major General of Australia has warned that if Beijing (Beijing) tries to seize Taiwan (Taiwan) by force, there could be a huge war between the US and China. This war will be like the third world war.
The former Major General also admitted that Washington is not convinced that he can win any such military conflict. On the other hand, Australia may also face attacks from China. In recent times, speculation about Beijing’s intentions towards Taipei has intensified, given China’s attitude. A US Navy official has predicted that Beijing may occupy Taiwan within the next six years. The official made this prediction about China’s aggressive behavior and bitter rhetoric against its neighboring country.
There may be a clash to gain Taiwan
In April, China’s Deputy Foreign Minister Le Yucheng insisted that Beijing would never allow Taiwan to become independent. Retired Major General and Liberal Senator Jim Dolan told Sky News Australia that any attempt by China to forcefully withdraw Taiwan could lead to a major military conflict. He said, China has a purpose and that is to withdraw Taiwan peacefully or forcefully and we have to accept it. But this will not be the slightest use. For this, China will have to eliminate the Guam base. In addition, China will also have to target American bases in Japan. Such circumstances will not be less than any major war.
Australia will have to face collateral attack
Jim Dolan claimed that Australia may have to face collateral attack from China in this war. He suggested that China could target Australia with missiles and cyber attacks. The former Major General said that this is something which worries me the most in the skirmish between the US and China. He said that you can see that America does not think that it can win this war. If this war moves towards the Pacific Ocean, we do not know what we will do.
