In a warning with global implications, Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te emphasized the dangers of a potential Chinese takeover of Taiwan, highlighting the threat it poses to U.S. interests and international stability. This statement was part of an interview on a prominent U.S. Conservative radio show.
Lai urged former U.S. President Trump, during the discussion, to closely monitor Chinese President Xi Jinping's military expansions in the Taiwan Strait, East China Sea, and South China Seas. He stressed that the challenge extends beyond Taiwan's annexation, as China seeks to fortify its global influence.
Despite lacking formal diplomatic ties, Lai called for continued U.S. support to maintain peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific region, highlighting concerns that China's actions undermine the rules-based international order.
