In a talk show, posted on Kuaishou on October 31, 2021, a popular Chinese military expert, Wang Yunfei, said that Mainland China’s Anti-secession Law made it clear that if Taiwan “crosses one of the three red lines” drawn by the Law, China can use force to “take back Taiwan as early as tomorrow.”  

He also expressed belief that the deadline for the takeover won’t go beyond 2050 because the Chinese Communist Party has made a pledge to the outside world to achieve the “great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation by the middle of the century.”
