China upped its retaliation this Friday for Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan with actions that include suspending cooperation mechanisms with Washington, sanctioning the President of the US Legislature, and crossing ships and planes in the middle strait. Formosa.

Two days after the veteran politician’s controversial trip, Beijing announced eight measures, including a suspension of cooperation on issues such as judiciary, climate change, repatriation of illegal immigrants, criminal legal assistance, combating transnational crime and climate change talks. .

He also canceled telephone conversations between heads of military commands and working meetings between the defense portfolios of both powers, as well as the Naval Security Advisory Mechanism.

These cancellations mean that there is no longer a mechanism of trust between the militaries of both superpowers at a time when tensions in the Taiwan Strait are at levels not seen since the 1990s.

The Asian country released the decision just an hour after imposing sanctions against Nancy Pelosi and their next of kin for “ignoring concern and resolute opposition” China to his trip and for “undermining the sovereignty and territorial integrity” of the Asian country.

This imaginary line in the strait functions as an unofficial but tacitly observed boundary for China and Taiwan in recent decades.

“Quality Leap”

Chinese exercises are taking place in six areas around the island, one of them about 20 kilometers from the coast of Kaohsiung, the main city in southern Taiwan, and despite the fact that in recent years China conducted other exercises in the Taiwan Strait, this week they differ in that “they cover a larger area, involve more military personnel and are expected to be very effective,” Chinese military experts said, quoted by local media.

This large-scale military exercise, which will last until Sunday and which Taiwan has called a “blockade”, “represents a quantum leap in the previous dynamics and is probably irreversible. it will stay,” said Xulio Rios, director of the Chinese Policy Observatory, Efe.

Rios predicted that during this crisis China “she will certainly be sharper in military pressure on Taiwan” and “she will try to secure greater control over the island and its environs by de facto means”, while explaining that the maneuvers represent “a prelude to a significant change in the military approach to China About Taiwan.

Missile trajectory doubts

The Chinese exercise this Thursday included long-range artillery firing off Taiwan’s east coast using “several types of conventional missiles,” a task in which the projectiles “hit their target accurately,” according to the army. Asian giant.

Shortly thereafter, Taiwan’s defense ministry said it was “instantly aware” of the missile’s launch thanks to “reconnaissance and surveillance” tasks during what Beijing called “successful” exercises.

However, Japanese military officials reported last night not only about the alleged fall of five Chinese ballistic missiles in the waters belonging to the special economic zone (EEZ) of the Japanese country, but also that five Chinese missiles flew over the island of Taiwan itself. . . .

The island’s army did not confirm or deny this point, limiting itself to stating that its surveillance systems “detected the trajectory” of missiles that “posed no danger” to the island.
