China can take Taiwan.
But what about a naval blockade of China?
Well, China has about 9,000 miles of coastline, which is a prodigious amount of territory to blockade. More to the point, they also have Russia, Afghanistan, North Korea, and 10 other countries on their borders, any of which would be only too happy to help break such an embargo.
When we blockaded Cuba it was 90 miles off our coast, we controlled the seas in the area, and it was a small-ish island with no other support than a superpower 10,000 miles away. Not a viable solution.
