According to him, with the tension in Taiwan Strait, CCP has introduced the new military reserve legislation to deter the United States and prepare for war on Taiwan.
“In general, it creates a momentum to exert pressure on the United States, and cooperates with the CCP’s general strategy of defeating Taiwan without fighting. However, the question of whether to have a war or not is very delicate, but it has well prepared for war.”
Su Tzeyun, the director of Taiwan’s Institute for National Defense and Security Research, stated to The Epoch Times, Feb. 9, that the reserve force belonged to the CCP’s national defence mobilization mechanism. “It’s part of the national combat readiness and the fighting force. Certainly, it can be viewed that if CCP decides to attack Taiwan in the future, it will be mobilized.”
Su said that the CCP has an enormous military and that if it launches a war, this mobilization force will only be a supplementary tool. For the defensive side, mobilization, on the other hand, is one of the main tools.
