Do you expect China to try and invade Taiwan at any point in the next year or two? The president of China has said he wants their military to be ready to do this in 2027. I don't think war with China over Taiwan is inevitable. And we should really do everything we can to avoid it. Because in that kind of conflict, we both have nuclear weapons. There's going to be no winner in a conflict with a near peer adversary. (02:47–02:53)
