This incident follows a recent pattern of escalated maneuvers by China around Taiwan, sparking concerns over regional stability as Beijing continues to assert its claims over the island. Taiwan has been governed independently since 1949. However, China considers Taiwan part of its territory and insists on eventual reunification, by force if necessary.
China is intensifying its cognitive warfare efforts against Taiwan, as its United Front Work Department establishes a dedicated misinformation unit, according to a post by the Taipei Times.
Currently, China is conducting the National People’s Congress and the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, which is an annual assembly of the Chinese government known as the “two sessions,” as reported by the Taipei Times. (ANI)
