Washington, 21 March 2024, Thursday

A senior officer of the US Navy says that China has started full preparations to occupy Taiwan by 2027.

Admiral John Aquilino, in-charge of the Navy's Indo-Pacific Command, informed the US Congress that despite the economic challenges, China has increased its defense budget by a whopping 16 percent in the last few years. China's defense budget has now reached 223 billion dollars.

He further said that I have been in charge of the Indo-Pacific Command for the last three years and during this period, the Chinese Army has inducted 400 new fighter jets and 20 large warships into its fleet. China has doubled its arsenal of missiles and cruise missiles. All these things indicate that China is getting ready to occupy Taiwan by 2027. As soon as the Chinese President Xi Jinping gives the order, the message is being received that the Chinese army is ready to swallow Taiwan on the strength of its strength.

Admiral John Aquilino said that the Chinese army is also continuously studying the attack on Taiwan. It appears that China plans to encircle Taiwan by air and sea.

The knowledge of the admiral shocked even the American parliamentarians. There is a constant debate on China's intentions regarding Taiwan in the US Parliament and defense circles. Meetings are also held especially on China's 2027 potential plan.

During one such discussion session, Admiral John Aquilino provided the above information to the Members of Parliament.
