China is likely to increase its campaign of pressure on Taiwan both before and after the island’s handover of power to a new government in May, a senior national security official in Taipei warned Monday.
Taiwan expects China to continue its “push and pull” tactics in the coming months, National Security Bureau Director-General Tsai Ming-yen told lawmakers in Taipei. He warned Beijing is likely to maintain its military and political intimidation against the government in Taipei while also offering economic incentives to those who help further its goal of unifying with the island.
