Скачать или смотреть “Takaichi Shock” — China Roared, Japan Didn’t Flinch (Taiwan, Trade Pressure, Rare Earth Risk)

Let’s break it down.

A new China–Japan clash is escalating after Japan’s leadership made sharper remarks on Taiwan — and Beijing responded with economic pressure: tighter “dual-use” export controls, rare-earth anxiety, and even trade investigations hitting sensitive industries like semiconductors and specialty chemicals.

The big question: did China roar… and Japan didn’t flinch? And if so, what does that mean for the region?

In this episode, I explain:

Why Taiwan language is a red line for Beijing
How “dual-use” export controls work — and why they can be incredibly broad
Why rare earths and magnets are the real leverage point (industry, EVs, defense)
Japan’s response: why Tokyo is signaling “no coercion”
The bigger regional twist: South Korea becoming the swing player in the middle
Neutral analysis. No hype — just incentives, pressure tools, and consequences.
