Chinese commentators debate Trump's Greenland remarks and Taiwan implications

Chinese commentators are debating the implications of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's threats to take control of Greenland and the Panama Canal. They suggest these comments may weaken U.S. calls for China to refrain from military threats regarding Taiwan. While the military situation around Taiwan remains unchanged, some analysts believe Trump's approach could create opportunities for China. They note that Trump's transactional view of foreign policy might lead to negotiations over Taiwan. China's foreign ministry dismissed any connection between Greenland and Taiwan, asserting that Taiwan is an internal matter. Taiwan's government reaffirmed its sovereignty, stating that any distortion of its status will not alter the situation in the Taiwan Strait.
