US says Taiwan should be a sovereign & independent state, Donetsk People's Republic & the Luhansk People's Republic shouldn't, Kosovo should.

@nonsensiclesnail It does bear to question, what gave any state right to draw boundaries? It seems in history, the sames one align mostly with the ones they agreed with before?

@SW-User I agree! And there are rules, self imposed rules, agreed upon rules among rulers of like mind or ones that can benefit from the other.

@nonsensiclesnail What are the rules? If the people of Taiwan vote to be independent from China, they should be? If those are the rules, the same rules should apply in all regions. It seems the rules change on case by case basis and ultimately it's up to the US and its allies to decide.

@RocktheHouse not like i know the rules. Its always been up to whomever has the bigger guns and the most to gain.
