Musk proposes giving China some control over Taiwan
18:05
Billionaire Elon Musk, who caused outrage recently with his proposal to end the Russian-Ukrainian war by, among other things, recognizing the annexation of Crimea, has now suggested that tensions between China and Taiwan could be resolved by giving Beijing some control over the island.
"My recommendation would be to develop a special administrative zone for Taiwan, which would be reasonably acceptable, (although) probably not make everyone happy," the world's richest man told the Financial Times.
The Communist government in Beijing recognizes democratically ruled Taiwan as part of the PRC and seeks to take control of it, without ruling out the possibility of an armed invasion. The government in Taipei does not recognize Chinese claims and believes that Taiwan's 23 million people should decide their future.
