Colonel Hutton states "A powerful China is actively using economic strength to attempt domination of diplomatic, informational, military and economic power spheres in its region explicitly to override American interests. They have even named it. It’s the Great Rejuvenation of 2049. It is currently bullying neighbors such as the Philippines where Xi is claiming more and more of the South China Sea as its own territory, and overwhelming small nations with Mafia-like loans and payoffs to government officials, such as in the Solomon Islands, and in other regions such as Africa and Central and South America. China continues to intimidate Taiwan and claims the country actually belongs to it. It should benoted that since the communist takeover in 1949 China has never controlled the democratic nation of Taiwan. They claim ownership merely for having defeated the last regime on the mainland. Much of the west has pragmatically agreed with communist China’s “one China” claim mostly to build economic ties to the extremely large economic potential of the nation. While recognizing the dubious “one China” policy, the U.S. and other nations see Taiwan as a free and independent country. Eventually this purposely vague situation will be resolved. For Xi and his CCP, the resolution is unification with the mainland and subjugation of the people of Taiwan must has been done in Hong Kong and Macao."
