WASHINGTON, 20 April 2022, (TON): China under Chinese Communist Party General Secretary Xi Jinping has ramped up political, economic, and military pressure on Taiwan.
The roots of Beijing’s pressure campaign, including Xi’s personal interactions with Taiwan policy, go back decades.
But recent events have deepened and intensified China’s efforts, which include seeking to block Taiwan from engaging the rest of the world as part of a comprehensive strategy to force Taipei to move toward unification with the mainland on Beijing’s terms.
The report explores trends related to Taiwan’s international participation and offers a framework for how Washington, Taipei, and interested allies and partners can respond to growing pressure from Beijing.
The authors make three general recommendations for policymakers from the United States, Taiwan, and like-minded partners for sustaining Taiwan’s international participation and detail specific steps to advance them.
