China is 'developing the capability' to invade Taiwan, says top US general

A Chinese attack on Taiwan is not imminent, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley has said, but the US is watching "very closely".

China is clearly developing the capability to attack at some point, but deciding to do so would be a political choice, Genral Milley told the BBC.
China says Taiwan is a breakaway province that must be re-unified with the mainland, by force if necessary.
