How Taiwan’s 2024 Election Could Change Its Relationship With China, US | Insight | Full Episode
Taiwan is headed for its Presidential Election on the 13th of January 2024. It could be the island’s most consequential contest yet. Looming large over the polls, is the spectre of intensifying US-China rivalry. Taiwan has become caught in a tug-of-war between the two superpowers. The main presidential candidates have made their positions on US and China relations a key part of their campaign messaging.
Meanwhile, across the strait, Chinese President Xi Jinping wants the People’s Liberation Army to be capable of invading the island by 2027, in the middle of the next Taiwan President’s term. There are also troubles on the domestic front. An export slump, stagnant wages, and inflation have created the slowest economic growth in eight years. It will be up to the next leader to turn the ship around.
