China works with long term plans and has goals to achieve. There was a US intel that suggested 2027 is the year China attacks Taiwan. That could be true or maybe the CCP is more flexible on time if the conditions are met or not. The more the west tries to isolate China, the quicker it would move towards the attack.
There are still hopes in China that there would be a peaceful reunification but I don't see that coming as the young people in taiwan are against it.
When you build up military hardware and spend a lot of money on your military, you are expected to get some results. It's not about whether but when would China attack.
I think 2028/29 would be a much better period as that would be another huge election year and as messed up the US and European democracy is, they'd be in dire conditions by that elections.
