China’s show of power to Taiwan by flying dozens of fighters.
Taiwanese authorities announced on Sunday (today) the flight of 28 Chinese fighter jets around the island of Taiwan and the crossing of 20 planes over the borderline.
In the continuation of Western interventions in Taiwan affairs and China’s tensions with them over this island, there are reports of dozens of Chinese fighter jets flying near Taiwan.
AFP quoted Taiwanese authorities as reporting that 28 Chinese military jets were spotted near the island of Taiwan.
According to the Ministry of Defense of Taiwan, 28 fighters were seen near Taiwan, and 20 of these planes crossed the borderline and entered Taiwan’s territory.
The ministry said China was carrying out “missions such as long-range exercises and training”, adding that it was monitoring the situation with aircraft and patrol ships.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Defense had previously announced that from Wednesday morning to Thursday morning of last week, 68 Chinese fighter jets and 10 military ships were observed near Taiwan, and some Chinese planes also crossed the region and left for the western Pacific Ocean for a joint operation. Conduct sea and air training.
The comments of the Taiwanese authorities about China’s military movements were made while tensions were raised last week following the provocative action of the United States and Canada in passing two ships through the Taiwan Strait.
While condemning this American and Canadian action, Chinese officials announced that the Chinese military forces were put on alert.
China considers Taiwan a part of its territory and has repeatedly announced that the diplomatic relations and relations of the US and its allies with this island are contrary to the principle of “One China” and violate China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
China has repeatedly warned Taiwan’s authorities and Western supporters of the island’s “separatist” tendencies and has said that it will use all means, including the military option, to prevent Taiwan’s separation from China.
