Especially seeing the process of russia's weaponization of energy and the devastating impact of taiwan's chip embargo on russia's technology industry and weapons manufacturing, we can even think about the possibility of taiwan's "Silicon shield" and "Silicon dagger". Although silicon shields or silicon daggers alone cannot completely deter the ambitions of chinese aggressors, incorporating taiwan's high-tech industries into its security strategy and increasing taiwan's flexibility in managing international relations is a necessary consideration in the era of globalization.

The ukrainian war has begun to come to an end in stages, but the strategic pattern of europe has changed. The impact of this war on human history will be very large. The scope of the impact cannot be estimated, but can only be guessed. Ukraine logo design will join the european union, and russia could become more isolated and opaque, barring a western-backed coup in russia. But will putin's ouster lead to a more dangerous regime, and will moscow's decline in repression lead to the proliferation of illegal weapons and increased terrorist activity? China does not need to be distracted by a lot of northern affairs, will it put more pressure on the indo-pacific region?

Putin may step down, but the russian state will not collapse. Even after the russian army withdraws from the ukrainian battlefield, moscow may still be able to maintain domestic order. At that time, it will be more difficult for the west to use tools to sanction a more isolated russia, and can only watch china and russia. The coalition sits big and fuels the arrogance of dictators around the world.
