I don't think you realize just how many long range ballistic missiles and AShM China has with the capability of cutting off Taiwan, destroying any assets on the island, oversaturating USN ship defences and blanketing US bases across the Pacific + keep hitting them.
China is closing the technological gap and produces in vast bulk quantities. An entirely different species compared to russia or Iran.

There are very strong indicators of the Taiwanese contacting the #ChinaVirusDevelopers to surrender to them. It may be a much better option than fvcking their country up.
There's a saying: where two elephants fight, the grass will be trampled. The Taiwanese are the grass and so is the EU, unfortunately.

They have lots, that's for sure. And you are correct, the USN can defend against them, until they are oversaturated or US ships and bases run out of missiles.
But I don't think the strategy will be to park a carrier batlle group in the Straits of Taiwan. The strategy will be about long range kills like LRSAM packed B-2 and B-21s for example. Even C-17s with with Rapid Dragon palletized missiles. US submarines will patrol the Straits with impunity however and be untouchable. Their biggest challenge will be expending all of their ordinance and having down time to re-arm.
Cutting China's sea lanes however, will be the easy part and happen on Day 1.

Loss of trust is a two way street. But honestly, US and Europe are just too closely knit.There's a few things that could be said about such "trivial" matters as loss of trust here, but you'll just bang your chest screaming "good riddance", so why bother
So when did Europe betray that trust? And without co-op in security and economy what does that closely knit relationship boil down to exactly (honest question)? I find it hard to name a "western" value that current US admin is a beacon of.
