Nuclear proliferation is a bigger concern than a Chinese takeover of Taiwan.

If the US gives nukes to Taiwan, what would stop China giving nukes to eg Venezuela (or whatever South or Central American nation the US doesn't like that month).

Edit: previously I wrote "If the US gives nukes to China". I meant Taiwan here of course.

The question posed by the parent is arming Taiwan to defend itself.


Yes, I meant "If the US gives nukes to Taiwan" of course (previously wrote China here).
