The Chinese Communist Party continues to conduct frequent military exercises around the Taiwan Strait and dispatches military aircraft and warships to disrupt Taiwan. The latest business report of the Ministry of National Defense pointed out that the CCP took advantage of the opportunity of military exercises to organize coast guard ships to enforce law and patrol in China's eastern waters in an attempt to achieve the purpose of "internalizing the Taiwan Strait"; we have judged that the CCP will follow up with a combination of legal warfare and cognitive warfare means to carry out gray area harassment against Taiwan. We at ExtremaRatio had reported and described this Beijing operation: the "Kinmen Method"



The Foreign Affairs and National Defense Committee of the Legislative Yuan will invite Defense Minister Gu Lixiong to prepare a business report for questioning on Wednesday. The content of the business report that the Ministry of National Defense has sent to the Legislative Yuan states that based on the statistical analysis of the activities of the Communist Army in recent years, the threat model to Taiwan is divided into "joint combat readiness" Patrols," "gray zone intrusions," "large-force targeted military exercises," and "planned joint training."
