Why I Fear for Taiwan

(2020)

I hope things have improved in the meantime. I remember reading about wargaming from the past years as showing a very strong hand for China. From a convenient FP post:

> "In the words of U.S. Air Force Gen. John Hyten, the U.S. side “failed miserably” during a 2020 war game that reportedly involved a Chinese assault on Taiwan. (The exact scenario remains classified.)" ( https://foreignpolicy.com/2022/04/03/taiwan-china-war-game-m... )

As an American I hope something in the defense has changed in the meantime, and I would like to learn from an updated situation report. A WSJ article from today seems confidant on the USA's ability to maintain the status quo (although it would require substantial sacrifices from both the USA and Taiwan.), I don't understand why the "West" should be more confidant than from two years prior.
