China Could Invade Taiwan By 2023, U.S Warns

The head of the United States Navy recently warned of the possibility of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan before 2024. Admiral Mike Gilday, chief of naval operations, said that the U.S had to consider that China could take action against Taiwan much sooner then expected. He made these comments while speaking to the Atlantic Council, an American security and international affairs think tank, on Wednesday.  He continued saying: "When we talk about the 2027 window, in my mind that has to be a 2022 window or potentially a 2023 window… I don't mean at all to be alarmist… it's just that we can't wish that away."
