Quote:..considering the shifting attitudes among the Taiwanese population, with two thirds of the Taiwanese now viewing themselves as Taiwanese and also wanting to maintain the current status quo, this is "a situation where the mainland is looking carefully, wondering what they can do", he said.

He added, "If they squeeze, it turns the Taiwanese against them. If they relax, the fear that the Taiwanese will have more international space."

Hence, he opined that while China is going to constrain Taiwan's international space "as much as they can", they are not likely to move unilaterally against Taiwan unprovoked.

Such a move is "high risk", he said, adding that even if it works, the victory would be "decrepit" as the "20 something million people" on the island are not "willing citizens".

Already wasted 2decades.
How long more do you want to waste?
Even after another 2 decades, nothing will change.
谈判桌得不到的东西,只能付出武力解决。
已经给机会了,和平统一不行,就只能走下一步了。
China has already made a calculated move.
Only 10% agree to unify.
40%+ still uncertain.
40% want to be independent.
