Taiwan: "China is preparing to unleash war." Xi's order: "Ready for real combat"

China "seems to be trying to be ready to unleash war against Taiwan."

Taipei's foreign minister, Joseph Wu, told CNN that the island "must prepare".

After days of military maneuvers all around the island, with simulations of precision attacks, the minister expressed his firm condemnation of Beijing. And the tension remains very high.

In fact, US intelligence believes that Xi Jinping has ordered the military to be ready for the invasion by 2027.

Wu replies: "Chinese leaders will think twice before deciding to use force against Taiwan," but Taiwan simply needs to be prepared."

Meanwhile, Xi Jinping himself has appealed to China's armed forces to "strengthen training in the direction of real combat".
