If Chinese Regime Seizes Taiwan, It Could Trigger ‘Domino Effect,’ Taiwanese Minister Warns

China’s communist regime has been “actively preparing” for war to seize Taiwan, a Taiwanese official said recently, warning that the consequence of a Chinese takeover could trigger a regional “domino effect” and directly threaten U.S. security.

Chiu Chui-cheng, head of Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council, a government body in charge of cross-strait relations with China, told the Washington-based Heritage Foundation on Sept. 12 that Taiwan holds “irreplaceable strategic importance” that is closely linked to U.S. interests.
