    If China (not Xi) has short term plans of taking Taiwan
    out of its One Country/2 Systems regime (it owns Taiwan
    now according to the UN( including Aus) since 1972, then
    it would first soften it up economically by pulling the pin
    on Taiwanese exports to the Mainland . It has not done so,
    and therefore it has no plans of doing a Homg Kong on
    Taiwan anytime soon .

    While China/Hong Kong has reduced imports from Taiwan
    since Pelosi's visit Japan & Asian has taken up some of the slack
    but not all.

    NB: Since the US has enveigled Sun enterprises to Ove half of its
    Chip manufacturing to the USA, Taiwanese exports to the USA
    has dropped.

    To get back to your contention that China has near term plans
    to integrate Taiwan with the Mainland is not revealed by the
    trade figures (yet) so from my point of view, everything else
    is meagre speculation or wishful thinking.(charts don't tell lies..eh?)
