Middle-Power Equities in a Cross-Strait Conflict
In this report, the authors explore the equities of four middle powers--Australia, Canada, Japan, and the United Kingdom--and roles that they might play in deterring or limiting conflict between China and Taiwan over the Taiwan Strait. A country's equities are its long-term interests in a scenario, such as a cross-Strait conflict. Middle powers are nations that are not small but lack the size and influence to significantly disrupt global affairs.
