A republican This was said by the congressman on Saturday China keeps an eye on the president Joe BidenRussia’s response to the crisis in Ukraine, as it looks to its own neighbor Taiwan if it continues to fail.
Representative of Scott Perry Florida spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and called the Biden administration’s leadership an “absolute failure.”
Perry now believes China is deciding what to do in Taiwan after the Russian invasion.
“It’s underway,” he said. “This is an ongoing assessment and I still think there is time for the Biden administration to show some strength here and some determination. But if they continue to fail or fail more spectacularly than they already have, I think that somehow opens the door wide for China’s regression, and then it’s just a matter of time.
The U.S. Department of Defense said it remained “concerned” as nine Chinese planes entered the island nation’s air defense zone, Taiwan’s defense ministry said Thursday.

“The United States will continue to support the peaceful resolution of the Strait issue in accordance with the wishes and best interests of the people of Taiwan,” a spokesman said. “Our commitment to Taiwan is solid and contributes to maintaining peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and the region.”

When we take the United States offline to produce the energy the world needs, it opens it up to other actors who use it to blackmail their neighbors, and Vladimir Putin is one of them.
Perry said that when America withdraws its assets from the market, prices rise and Russian President Vladimir Putin takes advantage of these excavated profits.
The congressman also accused Biden of representing less than a strong front in the public sphere.

“Number two, his rhetoric is weak,” he said. “We saw him as weak in Afghanistan as in the rest of the world, of course, but Vladimir Putin did, and then recently, when Ukraine talked about a small invasion or something, it would be something we would do nothing about. this. This is very, very provocative.
Perry said Biden’s rhetoric “essentially opens the door” for Putin.
Perry was even less filtered on Twitter.
“It’s not hard to understand: Putin is a thug, a murderer and a tyrant,” Perry wrote on Twitter. POTUS’s weakness, negligence and apathy only encourage Putin to act without consequences. THIS MUST CHANGE. Harsh words and hope are not a way to act.
