On July 10, USIP hosted a conversation on the motivations driving China’s competition with Taiwan in the Pacific and its implications for peace and stability in the region. The discussion explored how Beijing’s desire for international recognition, extraterritorial control over its diasporas and domestic legitimacy all play a factor.
