- Abstract
The study "The First Battle of the Next War. Wargaming a Chinese Invasion of Taiwan" by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) examines the possibility of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan and its implications. The authors have played out the scenario 24 times and conclude that Taiwan can resist an invasion, but with significant losses. The United States is recommended to increase its deterrence and strengthen its military forces in order to better meet the challenges of a possible invasion. It is also noted that a blockade of Taiwan could be another option for China to exert political pressure.
