Xi warned China invasion of Taiwan would be ‘shambles’ ending in ‘defeat’ with 10k killed

Resistance to Xi’s invasion would be ‘formidable’, killing ten thousand Chinese soldiers within three to four weeks, a think tank has predicted.

President Xi Jingping of China has been warned an invasion of Taiwan would be a “shambles” for his military and end in defeat with tens of thousands killed or taken as prisoners of war. A complex think tank war game showing a hypothetical attack on the island showed Taiwan would remain an “autonomous democracy” after the invasion although both sides – including Western allies – would endure “sobering” costs.
