Could China's stategy be to conquer islands under Taiwan's control before taking the main island of Taiwan.



China Has Debated Attacking Taiwan-Controlled Islands, Top Taiwan Official Says



Beijing has mulled invading Taiwan's Pratas Islands but will not mount an attack before the island's president Tsai Ing-wen finishes her term in 2024, a top Taiwanese security official said.



"Attacking and capturing Pratas Islands, and using war to force Taiwan into talks, this scenario in our assessment will not happen during President Tsai's tenure," Chen Ming-tong, National Security Bureau Director-General of the self-ruling island, told lawmakers on Nov. 4.



The Taiwan-controlled Pratas Islands, which lays around 190 miles southeast of Hong Kong, has been particularly vulnerable to attacks because of its proximity to mainland China, some experts have said.



"Frankly speaking, they have internally debated about it before," he said. "We of course have some awareness," Chen said.



Chen made the comments just a day after Pentagon warned about China's growing nuclear capabilities, which is on track to have a five-fold increase over the next decade.



Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on Wednesday expressed the same opinion as Chen, saying that China is unlikely to seize Taiwan by military force in the near future, or what he defined as within a window of "6, 12, maybe 24 months."



"Having said that, though, the Chinese are clearly and unambiguously building the capability to provide those options to the national leadership, if they so choose, at some point in the future," Milley said at the Aspen Security Forum. "But anything can happen," he added.



Taiwan's defense minister has recently warned that China would be fully capable to invade Taiwan by 2025.

I'm surprised Kinmen and Penghu islands are still part of Taiwan..



The population of both islands are very pro China.

The USSR did not have China's money.

And where did China get its money?



From Western corporations and businesses who saw bigger profits at the expense of domestic employment.



As Lenin said...""The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them."

I think the original plan was to make communist China less of a threat.



But it didnt work out that way.

China and Japan fought a lot of battle before World War 2..



Taiwan became part of Japan in 1895 with the signing of the Treaty of Simonoseki after Japan defeated the Ching dynasty..



The first recorded battle between the two East Asian nations was in 663.
