Summary:
Taiwan's government has called on China to cease its military pressure on the island following the Trump–Xi summit in Beijing, which yielded no new information on Taiwan. Mainland Affairs Council Deputy Minister Liang Wen-chieh stated that Taiwan remains a key topic in China-U.S. discussions, but the summit produced no surprises. Liang emphasized that previous talks have included warnings about potential conflict and identified China's continued military activities—such as deploying aircraft and vessels—as the primary threat to peace in the Taiwan Strait. Taiwan pledged to maintain close communication with the United States on these matters.

Scripture: Proverbs 21:31 (NASB 1977)
"The horse is prepared for the day of battle,
But victory belongs to the LORD."
Commentary:
Proverbs names a reality leaders often avoid saying out loud: military readiness doesn’t guarantee control. Taiwan is watching aircraft and ships move in real time, and ordinary people notice the tension first. That kind of pressure in the Taiwan Strait exposes how fragile “stable” arrangements can be, even after high-level summits. This is one of the prophetic patterns Scripture describes—nations posturing, alliances tightening, and peace resting on thin ice rather than covenant truth. Stay clear-eyed and prayerful.
Prophetic Trend:
Rising military pressure around Taiwan shows how quickly diplomatic meetings can coexist with escalation, signaling a broader pattern of fragile peace and hardening alliances.

He noted that warnings about potential conflict had been made in previous meetings. Liang said the real threat to peace in the Taiwan Strait is China’s ongoing military harassment, including the deployment of aircraft and vessels, rather than Taiwan’s desire to maintain its way of life.......
