Chinese National's Speedboat Incident Sparks Taiwan Concerns Over PLA Invasion Scenario
Jun 12, 2024, 03:40 AM
A Chinese national drove a speedboat into the harbor at the mouth of the Tamsui River, leading to the capital Taipei. The incident, which occurred on June 11, 2024, has sparked concerns in Taiwan, as it is seen as a potential real-world test of a PLA Taiwan invasion scenario from #WorldOnTheBrink. However, China has dismissed Taiwan's concerns, stating that the man was acting on his own and that Taiwan should not be so suspicious. Beijing emphasized that the individual, a former navy captain, was not acting under any official orders and was heading towards Taiwan's Defense Ministry.
