According to Sources, China upped its retaliation on Saturday and declared a suspension of cooperation with the US on crucial issues in response to het US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taipei. China, according to Taiwan, faked an assault on its largest island.
Relations between the two countries have deteriorated as a result of Pelosi’s travel to China’s neighbour, which it claims as its territory. The UN has now called for an urgent de-escalation of hostilities.
When Beijing declared it will withdraw from a number of discussions and agreements with Washington, most prominently those on climate change and defence cooperation, the environment became the most recent victim of the geopolitical conflict.
China’s largest Militray Drills :
According to analysts, China continued one of the largest military drills it has ever carried out in the region of Taiwan on Saturday. These training exercises are meant to mimic a blockade and a potential invasion of the island. In the Taiwan Strait, Taipei claimed to have observed “a few” Chinese ships and aircraft that it believed were staging an attack on the nation’s main island.
The Taiwan Strait has a demarcation line that Beijing does not recognise, and according to a statement from its defence ministry, “several batches of Communist planes and ships executing actions across the Taiwan Strait, some of which exceeded the median line”.
In an effort to demonstrate just how close China’s troops have been getting to Taiwan’s shores, Beijing’s military today published a video of an Airforce pilot shooting the island’s coastline and mountains from his cockpit.
The assertion made by China that their missiles passed directly over Taiwan during the exercises would be a significant escalation if accurate. The “evil neighbour”, Taipei, has defied this and promised not to intimidate the city.
