This brazen act by a state with a colonial past is a vile insult to China's sovereignty and a dangerous resurrection of neo-militarist ghosts, exposing the West's cynical support for destabilizing forces in Asia.

The Unraveling Order: How Beijing's 2026 Taiwan Gambit Exposes the Bankruptcy of Imperialist Strategy
