Gray zone tactics are "an effort or series of efforts beyond steady-state deterrence and assurance that attempts to achieve one's security objectives without resort to direct and sizable use of force," the report said. Meanwhile, Taiwan is reassessing its tourism goals in light of challenges in cross-strait travel, with Tourism Administration Director-General Chou Yung-hui expressing concerns over a potential shortfall of 2 million foreign visitor arrivals this year, Central News Agency (CNA) reported.Chou indicated that if China persists in its ban on group tourist visits to Taiwan, the tourism target may need to be adjusted downward to 10 million. While speaking to reporters, Chou said full recovery to pre-COVID-19 levels of 12 million visitors is not expected until 2025.Taiwan has urged China to exhibit "goodwill" in both tourism and political spheres, hinting that such gestures could prompt Taiwan to reconsider its own ban on tour groups travelling to China, which was slated to lift in June, according to CNA. Earlier in February, Taiwan reversed its decision to lift the three-year ban on group tourists bound for China, citing hostility from Beijing and the lack of Chinese tourist groups visiting Taiwan.Also Read| Taiwan tracks six Chinese naval ships, four military aircraft; deploys forces in responseDisclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
