China has been warning for years that it will take control of Taiwan, an independent, democratically-ruled island off of China’s eastern coast. China has been using a number of grayzone warfare tactics to try to get it to surrender voluntarily, but so far it hasn’t worked.

For decades, China has been using a technique called salami slicing to, it hopes, gradually take over Taiwan. Instead of taking Taiwan all in one go, it starts by moving just a little bit closer to Taiwan’s airspace and territorial waters.
