Joining court would allow investigation of Xi Jinping if he were to order act of war against Taiwan
Taiwan’s government is considering joining the international criminal court, in part to increase deterrence of a Chinese attack or invasion.
Supporters also say it would help universalise the international legal system, which has a low presence in Asia, and increase Taiwan’s global participation at a time when Beijing works to keep it as isolated as possible.
The court was established by the Rome statute, which defined four core international crimes: genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and crimes of aggression. It has operated since 2002, prosecuting dozens of alleged war criminals. In March the ICC issued an arrest warrant for the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, over the forced deportation of children from Ukraine.
Taiwan should join NATO

Nah, not really. US supports Taiwan as a member of the First Island Chain of containment of the PRC. Any US acknowledgement of One China shouldn’t be construed as support.
Regardless of the US’s position, the timeline of admission of Taiwan into NATO is a NATO issue, not solely the US.

All nato nations are bowing down to a dictator for the sake of trade. But taiwan is an independant country
