Taiwan Bolsters Military Readiness, Joins West in Standing Against Aggression

Taiwan has stepped up its military preparedness, joining Western sanctions against Russia and studying Ukrainian strategies. This move comes amid increased Chinese military pressure and the potential for China to take more aggressive action against Taiwan if Ukraine falls.

Taiwan's unusual military visits to Europe, including Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Latvia, indicate a strengthening of security ties. These visits, despite the risk of incurring China's wrath, demonstrate Taiwan's resolve to enhance its readiness. Taiwanese military officials are learning from the Ukrainian theater to bolster their overall defense against a potential Chinese attack.

Taiwan and Europe are also exchanging knowledge on countering disinformation and dealing with 'gray zone' operations, a tactic China has been employing against Taiwan for the past five years. By joining Western sanctions against Russia, Taiwan signals its commitment to standing against aggressive behavior.

Taiwan's actions reflect its determination to strengthen its military capabilities and international partnerships in the face of growing Chinese pressure. The island nation hopes for Ukraine's victory, understanding that a defeat could embolden China's moves toward Taiwan.
