On January 13th 2024 Taiwan’s voters will elect a new president. The stakes are high. Tensions between China and America may reach a critical point in the next four years. America’s intelligence agency, the CIA, has said that Xi Jinping wants China’s military to be ready for an invasion of Taiwan by 2027. Taiwan’s next president will determine the island’s strategy to prevent that invasion, and preserve its sovereignty and democracy.
