Western publications have reported that the Chinese military is “creating” the scenario of US intervention in the Taiwan war.
The Chinese military during training simulated strikes on US Navy ships. The purpose of the drills is to prevent the intervention of US forces in the event of a war with Taiwan. This was reported by the news agency Reuters.
Reporters received Taiwan’s official report on China’s military exercises.
The PRC is building up its forces for a potential attack on the island. In Beijing’s strategy, the main target is the chain of islands that stretches from Japan and passes through Taiwan, the Philippines and Borneo. They cover the coast of China and can be a military base.
The report says that the Celestial Empire may send its agents to the island to disrupt the control systems and damage the infrastructure.
Another potential risk Taiwan is considering is electronic attacks that could disrupt communications. In addition, in the event of a war, US Navy ships would enter the first island chain and become China’s target.
Taipei believes that Beijing seeks to establish strategic control over the said islands by 2035.
The US regularly sends warships to the South China Sea. They sometimes pass close to Chinese islands and the Taiwan Strait, prompting protests from the PRC.
It can be remembered that the visit of the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan worsened the relationship between Beijing and Washington. In response, the PRC army conducted a series of military exercises in the Taiwan Strait.
Less than two weeks after the sensational journey, a delegation from the US Congress arrived on the island. The State Department said congressmen have been visiting Taiwan for decades and that it does not conflict with the “one China principle.”
