Top House Republican Warns: U.S. Needs To Arm Taiwan Fast, Beef Up U.S. Military Presence To Avoid War

In an interview over the weekend, Rep. Mike Gallagher( R-WI ) issued a warning that China is attempting to annex Taiwan using every available military tactic.

According to Gallagher, chairman of the House Select Committee on China, the Chinese Communist Party is attempting to intimidate the United States with prior military drills close to Taiwan, according to Fox News'” Sunday Morning Futures.”

According to Gallagher, Foreign dictator” Xi Jinping would love to accomplish that reunification without force if feasible.” And cognitive warfare is the best way to achieve that. It’s’s done through financial pressure. Social conflict is the cause. And Taiwan’s’s President Tsai has been forewarning us about just that.

It’s’s what she refers to as cognitive warfare. Therefore, he continued,” It’s’s crucial that the American people not be intimidated. And it just goes to show how delicate the Chinese are that they were throwing a temper tantrum over the House speaker meeting with the democratically elected leader of Taiwan on British soil.

Veteran U.S. military Gallagher stated that the United States must arm Taiwan and” be moving heaven and earth to surge power out to the Indo-Pacific before it’s’s too late, before we have another war on our hands.”

According to Gallagher,” Harpoon anti-ship missiles” are the” most important” weapon that the United States needed to send to Taiwan.

When it comes to Harpoon deliveries, he said,” I’m’m still convinced there’s’s more we can do to put Taiwan at the front of the line, ahead of Saudi Arabia, for example.” He also added that we’re’re de-milling the harpoonic missiles so that they can be delivered to Taiwan in a few different ways. In order for the Taiwanese to produce several weapons internally, we could also look into licensing them. But in the end, the professional branch’s’s energy, focus, and selection are all that matter. To get this a daily concern for the delay to be cleared, we need the secretary of defense to get involved.
