Russia is highly unlkely to attack Ukraine in the immediate future & will wait for the Beijing Winter Olympics to conclude. The Russian military build-up is still underway & is not yet completed. Hence, hostilities ae unlikely for another 3 weeks. But interestingly, the US is now positioning 3 carrier battle groups in the Soujth China Sea, i.e. the USS Carl Vinson, USS Ronald Reagan & USS Abraham Lincoln. This indicates that China might try to take to take advantage of the Russia-Ukraine crisis & launch an invasion of Taiwan’s Pratas Island astride the Bashi Channel. For, since January 15, China has not despatched any PLAAF/PLAN combat aircraft into Taiwan’s ADIZ, choosing instead to send only turboprop-powered MR/ASW & SIGINT platforms. This may well mean that the PLAAF combat aircraft pilots are being given some rest in lieu of an impending high-intensity air campaign in the South China Sea.
Yeah, that's a fair Question... Why suddenly Chinese stopped showing up on Taiwan’s ADIZ?
