China's Taiwan Problem Just Got Much Worse - with Greg Terry - Paul Warburg



Today, I join Greg Terry to talk about the growing role Ukraine is playing in the modern geopolitical world - and why China is so terrified of it.

Ukraine isn’t just fighting Russia — it may be stopping China next. Ukraine’s war against Russia is reshaping modern warfare — and countries across Asia are paying attention. In this video, I break down how Ukraine’s drone warfare, naval drones, and asymmetric tactics are being adopted by Taiwan, the Philippines, Japan, and India to counter China. These combat-proven systems are changing the calculus of a Taiwan invasion and making the South China Sea far more dangerous for China’s military. With lessons from Ukraine and new risks exposed by the war in Iran and the Strait of Hormuz, China’s ability to invade Taiwan looks far weaker than it seems.
