China, Taiwan and the Boycott

Eleven Chinese missiles landed in Taiwan’s waters this past week.

Including 1 directly over Taipei, all while Chinese military exercises were conducted in six zones surrounding Taiwan.

The recent Chinese power demonstration is the largest cross-strait exercise in decades.

It is the most recent act of Chinese aggression in an ever-escalating tinder box of conflict.

  • Domestically, there are power struggles going on within China which are only ratcheting up the tension for the CCP even further.

It’s no secret that for the past few decades, China enjoyed world-leading economic growth.

However, double-digit economic growth can only go on for so long. A natural cooling of the economy is not unexpected or considered unhealthy.
