Taiwan falling to China would trigger 'catastrophic' consequences for peace in Asia, President Tsai Ing-wen warns
A Taiwan flag is carried across the sky during a national day rehearsal in Taipei, Taiwan, October 5, 2021.
China has blamed the United States, Taiwan's most important international backer and arms supplier, for the rise in tensions, while Taiwan has called China the "chief culprit" in the current situation.Writing in Foreign Affairs, Tsai said as countries increasingly recognise the threat China's Communist Party poses, they should understand the value of working with the island.
China believes Tsai is a separatist for refusing to accept that Taiwan is part of "one China", and has cut off dialogue.Taiwan does not seek military confrontation, and wants peaceful, stable, predictable and mutually beneficial coexistence with its neighbours, she wrote.
"Amid almost daily intrusions by the People's Liberation Army, our position on cross-strait relations remains constant: Taiwan will not bend to pressure, but nor will it turn adventurist, even when it accumulates support from the international community."
