23 Min Read TAIPEI (Reuters) - Months after eliminating a popular challenge to its rule in Hong Kong, China is turning to an even higher-stakes target: self-governing Taiwan.

In this irregular type of conflict, which stops short of an actual shooting war, the aim is to subdue the foe through exhaustion.
