But the Pentagon report concluded that China is still some distance away from confident consideration of the invasion of Taiwan. According to the report, China has deficiencies in urban warfare, which may be necessary to seize Taiwanese cities, and China also has deficiencies in maintaining supplies at long distances.
According to the report, “ even if it is assumed that it can successfully land and break through Taiwan’s beachhead defense ”, for the Communist Party and Xi Jinping, an amphibious invasion of Taiwan will still constitute “ a major political and military risk ”.
