You are describing World War 3.

If Taiwan joins with Ukraine, then China joins with Russia and invades an underdefended Taiwan. Taiwan allies then have to join to protect them, and it balloons from there.

While I do think WWIII IS inevitable, I did not describe WWIII. I described a Ukraine war that is already happening getting support from multiple countries. That war ending, and THEN, Taiwan asks for Ukraine help in a new singular war against china. If china decides to split it's military and also go to war with Ukraine, thats still one singular war, now in a 2-1 situation. I personally don't think china would DO that, but I'm also pretty sure people in the 1940s were shocked that the nazis broke their non-aggression pact with the soviet union. Not because hitlers word could be trusted, but because it's just so bafflingly stupid.

Thats the same level of stupid I think china going to war with Ukraine, after Ukraine beats russia, while they're already in a war with Taiwan (that has support from united states).
