"Taiwan President Highlights China's Internal Challenges as Deterrence"

Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-wen believes that China is unlikely to attempt an invasion of Taiwan anytime soon due to being overwhelmed by domestic problems and facing economic, financial, and political challenges. She also stated that the international community has made it clear that war is not an option and that peace and stability serve everyone's interests. However, China has been increasing aggressive military actions towards Taiwan, including daily incursions into its air defense identification zone. Tsai also highlighted China's interference in Taiwan's upcoming presidential election and the need for unity and trust among different social groups to counter social discord. Despite mounting military intimidation, cyber-attacks, and information manipulation, the Taiwanese people remain calm and clear-eyed about the situation. Tsai will step down as president after the election in January, having served the maximum two terms.
