South Korea has no strategic, economic (considering the sanctions and trade loss) or military value to China whatsoever. China need either Japan, Taiwan or the Philippines. Taiwan is the obvious choice since both sides are still claiming entire China and they are still technically at war.
Taking South Korea without also taking Japan is utterly useless for China.Reply
They said "trying to claim" not claim. And it was during the Korean War. It's well known that China, through the Soviets, were trying to "communize" the whole world and take everything they could. China was weak in 1950 having just come from a civil war, and didn't get South Korea. Later they tried again and won in Vietnam (and Laos for that matter).Reply
It'll be a win for the world at large by having safe sources for high tech chips so no one will be held hostage to a certain nation state's whims.Reply
These PR statements are only useful for the laughs they'll get after they fail. Might as well add 5-10 *more* years to these claims.
How these statements sound to me:
Intel will also beat TSMC. But Samsung isn't talking about Intel—yet. Will Intel beat Samsung, too, or just TSMC? No, TSMC will beat Intel, but not Samsung. Samsung will beat Intel, but only if they don't beat TSMC.
Pat Gelsinger, Kye Hyun Kyung, etc. the same breed of PR salesmen that don't want to admit how far behind they truly are.

Here I thought that's what Samsung was betting on happening to Taiwan within the next 5 years in order to surpass TSMC. Replydotjaz - Tuesday, May 9, 2023 - link
