      Taiwan is constantly menaced by a continual build up of forces by China. Xi has been 100% explicit that he wants Taiwan and he’s not afraid to use violence to get it. This is a relatively cheap way to discourage China from making a move, similar to how arming Ukraine has been a relatively cheap way of halting Russia’s invasion.
