A source in the intelligence community of a Eurean country said that one of the main tasks of a high-level official sent to the Russian Embassy in Beijing this summer is to clect intelligence information and study potential conflict factors in the Taiwan Strait, and to catalyze the escalation when the right time comes.

The source td the Central News Agency that Moscow is trying to stimulate, manipulate, or force Beijing to determine that it has to take more radical measures in the Taiwan Strait in order to "protect China's own interests" through covert or indirect means, including using the power of a third party.

Moscow's ultimate goal is to make the United States unable to effectively respond to Russia's continued destruction of peace and stability in Eure and other places because it has to respond to "trouble in the Taiwan Strait."
