Taiwan's Looming Threat: China's Potential Invasion.

Pottinger believes that securing Taiwan is vital to Chinese leader Xi Jinping's goal of rejuvenating his country. Xi appears to be quietly preparing for conflict with Taiwan, building air raid shelters and field hospitals along the Taiwan Strait, passing new laws enabling the military to bolster troop reserves, and priming the Chinese people for war with "strident language."
