If China Takes Over Taiwan, What Happens to the US? |

Описание: Taiwan is a success story for democracy and the U.S.-led international order, but the country's lasting security is far from guaranteed. Why do U.S. lawmakers and policy professionals, like President Trump's recent Department of Defense nominee Elbridge Colby, continue to emphatically advocate for defending Taiwan? In the first episode of #Operation2027, season three, host Chifei Fan breaks down U.S.-Taiwan trade, the semiconductor industry, and the U.S. military's island chain strategy, revealing why Taiwan matters so much to U.S. policymakers. If Taiwan's democratic society falls to China, how will this affect the U.S. and the existing international order? Fan illustrates potential scenarios and offers specific steps the U.S. can take to help strengthen Taiwan and prevent a Chinese takeover. Learn more about the importance of the Taiwan-U.S. relationship in this episode of Operation 2027.

Chifei Fan is a veteran journalist with over 20 years of experience as a Taiwanese correspondent to the U.S. During her career, Fan has worked for various media outlets, including TVBS and SETN.
