Taiwan has expressed concern that the growing domestic instability in China may prompt the communist regime to launch external aggression, especially against its island neighbor. | DYGalvezINQ
Wu made the remark in light of the mass protests in China with demonstrators denouncing the government’s strict zero-COVID policy, real estate failure, and the nation’s financial institutions.“What we are concerned about is the way the Chinese economy is further slowing down, leading to deterioration of basic economic growth and social stability,” he said.
Wu also raised concerns over Beijing’s increasing pressure to alienate Taiwan from the international community.“I think we’re starting to gather that Xi himself or his government, especially his Ministry of Foreign Affairs is becoming tougher than before in pursuing its national interest,” he said.
“If there’s going to be a war, it will be a disaster not just for Taiwan but for China as well,” he said.
