The national security expert who predicted Putin’s invasion of Ukraine argues that Xi Jinping is preparing to conquer Taiwan—with dire global stakes if he is not deterred

“An excellent source.” —Economist


We are fully in the midst of Cold War II, this time with China. Taiwan is a new West Berlin, a perilous strategic flashpoint where localized events could trigger a devastating war between nuclear powers.

But this outcome is far from inevitable. Laying out the grand strategy for the United States and allies to avoid this fate, the highly respected security analyst Dmitri Alperovitch, who was one of the first to publicly predict Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, reveals key actions that could enable America to win the race for the twenty-first century. This sharp, timely book is the essential blueprint for preventing a catastrophe.
