Currently, the Taiwanese Coast Guard and the Chinese Navy are on a standoff in the Taiwan Strait as tension increases between the two countries.
The Taiwanese Coast Guard responded to the Chinese military drill as they encroached on their sea territory, calling for restraint from the PLA army as they began the military exercise around the Taiwan Straits.
To match the Chinese military strength, the Taiwanese Coast Guard has positioned its supersonic anti-ship missiles into battle-ready formation as fear of escalation heightened.
Reacting to the Taiwanese actions over the Chinese drill, the spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs Wang Wenbin has issued a strong warning to the Taiwan independence forces, saying “They will be left with their heads broken and blood flowing.”
China is poised to enforce military power to annex Taiwan under its control as done by Russia in Ukraine.
The United States, one of the major allies of Taiwan is yet to respond to the ongoing altercation in the Chinese Strait after a strict warning from Chinese President Xi Jinping urging them to steer off the Island as China remains committed to the “One Chinese Policy.”
