Revisionism has been a way of life in China for more than a century. China transited from imperialism to nationalism to Maoism to capitalism with socialist principles.

China is bellicose and militaristic towards India and Taiwan. The hurry to usurp Taiwan is palpable.

The priority task of PLA is capturing Taiwan and reunification with China. Xi Jinping keeps vowing to pursue “reunification” with Taiwan by peaceful means.

Reports have alluded to PLA transgressing the LAC and occupation of locations / heights in violation of accepted terms of the recent military agreements. One report also claimed that a clash had taken place at Galwan.

In the contemporary global geopolitical landscape, China has evoked more fear than hope. It has displayed an impressive capacity for political organisation to pursue its objectives. After nearly three decades of resting hopes on a China that will be a responsible power in the international system, there is now an increased consensus among most Western and Asian powers that a collective approach is necessary to tackle it.
