The US said China didn’t plan to invade Taiwan in 2027, backpedalling on a previous intelligence assessment ahead of Donald Trump’s planned summit with Xi Jinping in Beijing.
In a new annual intelligence report, the US said: “China, despite its threat to use force to compel unification if necessary and to counter what it sees as a US attempt to use Taiwan to undermine China’s rise, prefers to achieve unification without the use of force, if possible.”
