Taiwan’s President Ing-Wen said that they are closely monitoring China’s recent activities and are ready to respond to China’s actions if necessary.
While talking about the military exercises conducted by China near Taiwan’s border a few days ago, she said that Taiwan does not want to escalate the conflict and is always committed to its sovereignty and national security, adding that Taiwan is ready to respond if necessary.
After China launched a missile near Taiwan on Thursday, President Ing-Wen said, “Taiwan does not want to escalate the conflict, but is always ready to protect its sovereignty and nation.”
After US Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, China is conducting military exercises near the China-Taiwan border.
Although Taiwan has been self-governing since 1949, China has been treating relations with Taiwan as an internal matter since it is its land. China has launched its largest ever military exercise, launching powerful missiles into the sea near the border with Taiwan. The BBC mentioned that 4 of these missiles were fired into the sea via Taipei, the capital of Taiwan.
Saying that Japan is closely monitoring this matter, the Japanese Ministry of Defense has said that out of the 9 missiles fired by China so far, five missiles have been fired into the exclusive economic zone of their country. Regarding this issue, Japan is also protesting against such a move by China.
On Thursday, the Chinese military fired several missiles into the sea near northeastern and southwestern Taiwan. After US Speaker Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, China has become aggressive and has been conducting military exercises in Taiwan’s border area for the past few days. China’s military exercise on Thursday is said to be the largest ever.
China has been objecting to US Speaker Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan. As soon as Pelosi landed in Taipei, he warned that the United States had seriously violated the One China policy and that it would affect the relationship between the two countries.
Taiwan welcomed Pelosi in a grand manner despite China’s warning. Besides, Taiwan also refuted the Chinese response. According to Taiwanese officials, with Pelosi’s visit, China has sent more than 20 fighter jets into Taiwan territory.
