1667771363 Statement from Taiwan China has virtually blockaded

Taiwanese Ministry of Defense reported that 44 Chinese warplanes, 2 military drones and 4 warships were seen around the island during the day.

According to the ministry’s statement, 15 planes and 2 drones flew to the east of the air and sea line, which is assumed to limit the areas of influence of the parties in the Taiwan Strait, and 4 planes flew to the southwest of the place that Taiwan declared “Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ)”.

A total of 46 aircraft and 4 ships detected around the island were tracked by electronic tracking devices, patrol planes, ships and ground missile systems.

It is observed that China has increased its military patrol activities around Taiwan and flights crossing the nominal “middle line” separating the Taiwan Strait after the US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit in early August.

Pelosi became the first Speaker of the US House of Representatives to visit the island, which is in a sovereignty conflict with China, in 25 years. The visit drew the reaction of China, which saw the island as part of its territory.

After the visit, the Chinese army started military exercises around the island, and the exercises that lasted for 7 days created a de facto blockade around the island. During exercises using real weapons and ammunition, guided missiles fired from mainland China fell into the waters near Taiwan.

At the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CCP) last month, the amendment made to the Party Statutes added the statement “Taiwan’s independence will be opposed and attempts to achieve independence will be blocked”.

Beijing, emphasizing the “one China principle”, opposes Taiwan’s establishing independent diplomatic relations with the countries of the world, its representation in the United Nations and other international organizations, and requires countries that recognize it to break diplomatic relations with Taiwan.
