How vulnerable is Taiwan? This is what we talked about with Eberhard Sandschneider. The former professor at the Free University of Berlin is one of the most renowned experts on security policy – and on the Chinese military. Sandschneider does not expect an invasion of the island in the near future: The risk of clashing with the United States is too high, he tells Michael Radunski. But in the years and decades to come, a war between the US and China is quite possible. Since the People’s Liberation Army is also growing stronger both internally and externally, a disaster might be at hand after all.
