Russia has been caught on the wrong side by starting a war in Ukraine. It has been said in many reports that President Putin himself had no idea that this war would go on for so long and Russia would have to suffer huge losses. However, this war has forced China to think about the Taiwan issue.
CIA Director William Burns said that after Russia's experience in Ukraine, Chinese President Xi Jinping and his military leadership doubt their ability to invade Taiwan. In a televised interview on Sunday, a top US intelligence official stressed that the US must take Chinese ambitions to control Taiwan very seriously. However, he also clarified that this does not mean a direct military conflict.
What is China's 2027 plan?
The CIA chief said Chinese President Xi Jinping has asked the Chinese military to be ready to invade Taiwan by 2027. However, this does not mean that China has decided to launch a military invasion of Taiwan in 2027 or any other year. "The Chinese president doubts whether he can complete his invasion of Taiwan, given Russia's situation in Ukraine," he said.
What is the dispute between China and Taiwan?
Taiwan is an island located about 100 miles off the coast of southeast China. Taiwan considers itself a sovereign nation. It has its constitution. Taiwan has a government elected by the people. At the same time, the Communist government of China calls Taiwan a part of its country. China wants to take this island back under its control. Chinese President Xi Jinping strongly advocates the reunification of Taiwan and China. Historically, Taiwan was once a part of China.
Why is Taiwan important to the world?
Most of the chips used in phones, laptops, watches to cars are made in Taiwan. Taiwan's One Major company produces more than half of the world's chips. For this reason, Taiwan's economy matters a lot to the world. If Taiwan is occupied by China, then this very important industry for the world will be controlled by China. After this, his arbitrariness may increase further.
