'Porcupine Strategy: Know about Taiwan's plan to deter Chinese aggression |Oneindia News*Explainer

Taiwan is bolstering its defence strategy and policies to prep itself for any sudden Chinese aggression. The threat of sudden Chinese attack has loomed over Taiwan for around 70 years now. And with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, this possibility can’t be completely ruled out. Infact, China had sent its 47 fighter planes across Taiwan Strait last month in order to make its intentions crystal clear. As precautionary measures, Taiwan has announced quite a few steps in order to make itself more prepared in case the dragon decides to spew fire. In this video, we first explain the ‘Porcupine Strategy’ that Taiwan says can help protect it….and then outline the most recent steps announced by it.

Simulations Predict China Would Fail to Take Over Taiwan

Simulations Predict , China Would Fail, to Take Over Taiwan. 'Newsweek' reports that experts suggest a Chinese invasion of Taiwan would likely fail and result in heavy losses on both sides. 'Newsweek' reports that experts suggest a Chinese invasion of Taiwan would likely fail and result in heavy losses on both sides. After reviewing the results of two dozen war games, a Washington think tank concluded that repelling an invasion would be a costly victory for the United States and its allies. After reviewing the results of two dozen war games, a Washington think tank concluded that repelling an invasion would be a costly victory for the United States and its allies. According to the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), war games suggest that Chinese forces would be unable to occupy Taipei. . CSIS's report suggests that the 110-mile wide Taiwan Strait, which separates China from Taiwan, would be the site of a deadly air and maritime battle. The series of war games was modeled after the most likely scenario for a Chinese attack on Taiwan. . The invasion always starts the same way: an opening bombardment destroys most of Taiwan's Navy and Air Force in the first hours of hostilities, CSIS report, via 'Newsweek'. The war games showed that Chinese forces were unable to capture working ports or airfields, which would restrict their ability to sustain an invasion. CSIS also found that the losses on all sides of the conflict would be staggering, and that damage to Taiwan's economy and infrastructure would be catastrophic.

Considering the short period of time, U.S. air losses were greater than any witnessed since the Vietnam War. Naval losses were greater than anything experienced since World War II, CSIS report, via 'Newsweek'.

Earth’s Inner Core May Be Reversing Its Rotation, Study Suggests

Earth’s Inner Core , May Be Reversing Its Rotation, Study Suggests. According to a study published Jan. 23 in 'Nature Geoscience,' . our planet's inner core may be reversing after it temporarily stopped rotating. Researchers think it could be part of a 70-year cycle, with the inner core changing direction every 35 years, that may affect Earth's magnetic field and the length of days. After examining data, researchers think the inner core may have made another rotation reversal in the 1970s. We see strong evidence that the inner core has been rotating faster than the surface, [but] by around 2009 it nearly stopped. Now it is gradually mov[ing] in the opposite direction, Xiaodong Song, geophysicist, Peking University in Beijing, via 'Science News'. However, 'Science News' reports that other researchers think the inner core may change its rotation every three years. Others propose that the inner core doesn't move at all. Overall, researchers say more studies are needed to figure out what's going on with Earth's inner core. In all likelihood, it’s irrelevant to life on the surface, but we don’t actually know what’s happening. It’s incumbent on us to figure it out, John Vidale, geophysicist, the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, via 'Science News'
