Xi Jinping strangely thinks US is trying to “trick” China into invading Taiwan: Financial Times

This video examines a June 15 Financial Times article that revealed that Xi Jinping told European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, that the U.S. was trying to goad China into attacking Taiwan.
Xi has also delivered the warning to domestic officials in his own country. The Chinese leader said the US was trying to trick China into invading Taiwan, but that he would not take the bait.
The comments provide a window into Xi’s thinking on Taiwan - the most thorny issue in US-China relations.
The second half of the video dissects the article and attempts to understand the possible explanations and motivations for Xi's comment.
