Kina lover aldrig at give sig på Taiwan: Spændinger op til afgørende valg

Kina - spændinger - Taiwan - USA - valg

Opdag, hvorfor Kina og USA er i konflikt om Taiwan før det store valg.

Kina har for nylig meddelt, at de 'aldrig vil gå på kompromis' om Taiwan, hvilket medfører spændinger op til det afgørende valg på øen. Dusinvis af amerikanske lovgivere bakker op om resolutioner til støtte for Taiwan, hvilket vrisser Kina endnu mere. De taiwanske præsidentkandidater er i den afsluttende fase inden valget den 13. januar, hvor valgresultatet forventes at have afgørende indflydelse på øens fremtidige forhold til Kina. Selvom Kina forsøger at påvirke valget, har USA og andre lande advaret mod udenlandsk indblanding i Taiwan's demokratiske proces.
