Taiwan has warned that China could launch a full-scale invasion by 2027. The defence ministry shared this timeline during its annual military drills. Officials say the date aligns with China's military goals set by President Xi Jinping. Taiwan is increasing its defence exercises, doubling the length of its major war games. Recent Chinese military activity near Taiwan has also raised concerns. China sent dozens of warplanes and ships near the island, calling it a "punishment" for Taiwan’s pro-independence stance. Taiwan’s president has announced new security measures, while China has accused him of creating tensions.
