💨 Abstract

The U.S. attack on Venezuela may encourage China to assert its territorial claims over Taiwan and the South China Sea, but it won't hasten a potential invasion of Taiwan. Chinese President Xi Jinping's decisions on Taiwan are influenced more by domestic factors than U.S. actions. The attack provides China with an opportunity to criticize the U.S. and bolster its international standing. Analysts suggest that China will use this event to defend its territorial claims and push back against U.S. criticisms.
