“China has continued to modernise its military and increase its capability in a war with Taiwan,” it said.China views democratic Taiwan as its own territory, and has ramped up military activities in recent months, seeking to assert its sovereignty and express displeasure at Washington’s support for the island.

China has the ability to partially shut down Taiwan’s key ports and sea routes and cut off sea transport to the island, while its deployment of long-distance missiles is aimed at stopping foreign forces from assisting Taiwan, it said. China is also spreading “fake news” in Taiwan to try and “damage people’s faith in the country”, the report said.

Tsai is overseeing a military modernisation programme, including building submarines, upgrading Taiwan’s air force, and developing long-range missiles of its own.
