Join Hudson Institute for an expert panel discussion on China’s attempts to isolate Taiwan from membership in international organizations.
One part of Communist China’s long-standing campaign to quash Taiwan’s freedom, democracy, and self-government is to cancel Taiwan as a member of the international community. Chinese intimidation includes naval combatants that have encircled Taiwan while Peoples Liberation Army air forces violate Taiwan’s air defense zones. China seeks to isolate Taiwan from states that recognize it diplomatically. China routinely conducts information and cyber warfare against Taiwan. The list is long. Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Seth Cropsey with Ian Easton, Senior Director of the Project 2049 Institute, Alexander Sullivan, Adjunct Fellow at the Center for a New American Security’s Indo-Pacific Security Program, and Christian Whiton, Senior Fellow at the Center for the National Interest for a discussion of Taiwan’s membership in international organizations.
