"The greater concerns in China and Taiwan are on the political side, not on the economic side"

- William Kirby

About this Quote

This quote by William Kirby suggests that the main concerns between China and Taiwan are political, instead of financial. This is likely due to the fact that the two countries have a long and complicated history, with China claiming sovereignty over Taiwan. As an outcome, the political relationship in between the 2 countries is frequently tense and strained. This is even more made complex by the reality that Taiwan is an independent democracy, while China is an authoritarian state. For that reason, the main issues between the 2 nations are most likely to be political in nature, such as the status of Taiwan, the recognition of Taiwan as an independent state, and the potential for military conflict. Financial concerns, while important, are likely to take a rear seat to the more important political issues.
