Agenda: Addressing the Escalation of Hostilities in the Taiwan Strait and Its Implications for Regional Security

The Taiwan Strait is increasingly becoming the flashpoint of 21st-century geopolitical conflict. Rising tensions between China and Taiwan, backed by opposing global alliances, threaten to destabilize the entire Indo-Pacific region. This committee will examine the legality of military intervention, defence pacts like AUKUS, and UN-led peace enforcement. Delegates must consider the role of great power deterrence, freedom of navigation, and diplomatic backchannels. Key challenges include reconciling sovereignty claims with regional security imperatives. With global trade and cyber stability at stake, this agenda demands urgent multilateral diplomacy. Veto power, alliances, and crisis dynamics will define the debate. Strategic compromise may determine whether peace prevails, or war erupts.
