China Practises Full-scale Attack on Taiwan | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Chinese military staged drills around Taiwan, days after a new president took charge. While Taiwan is a self-ruled democratic island, China claims it as part of its territory. China has called the drills "punishment" for hawkish statements made by the new president and his Western allies. The PLA deployed 15 warships and 42 fighter jets to practise a full-scale assault on the island. Taiwan's president has slammed the drills and promised to "stand on the frontlines" with his soldiers. The latest drills are unprecedented for China as their previous ones only focused on economic blockade of the island. How will Taiwan's allies respond to this escalation? Palki Sharma tells you.

@@ What does this tell you?
If Xi Jinping wishes to visit Taiwan, personally or diplomatically, he must apply for a visa and needs approval from the Taiwanese Foreign Affairs.

[ElviraAngellano]

Congrats to the Taiwanese 🇹🇼 who have enjoyed in their country:
- voting,
- transparency,
- freedom of speech,
- freedom of press,
- a good economy, and
- good relations with Western countries.
China 🇨🇳 has none of those things.

China's strategy to shift the focus of international community on what they do in West Philippine Sea and Philippines waters

[carvan]

They are flexing their weapons and ships that are made from recycled trashcans and washing machines😂

[josephpaul]

Taiwan belongs to China according to the international law. So China will take Taiwan like it or not

[pmcpegasus]

04:39 “ This is a powerful Punishment “ How is it a Punishment? All the CCP did was kill their local sea life with their equipment from Temu and AliExpress 😂😂😂

[illuminadaagustin]

I pray that our Almighty God will protect and save Taiwan.

[Red.bulldozer]

Hope taiwan learn from 2020 chinese aggression in eastern ladakh. The chinese army was conducting annual military drills near the indian frontier but the indian army let down the guard dismissing as no threat.

What ever happened there after is now history

[raqueldizon]

China is so envy on taiwan!taiwan is a rich country!there aint no way taiwan will join china again!

[manikanthan]

This kind of coercion and intimidation against a Sovereign country is termed as aggression. It is high time that world world countries recognise Taiwan and as a member country in UN.

In the Sino-Japanese War of 1895, China was defeated, resulting in Japan taking Taiwan from China. In 1945, Japan was defeated and Taiwan was returned to China according to the Cairo Declaration. In 1949, the Chinese Civil War ended and the Chinese Kuomintang retreated to Taiwan. Due to the intervention of the United States and the fact that China was too weak at the time, China was not completely unified. The Taiwan issue is entirely China's internal affairs.

[HashiramaSenju-ydxh]

Bharat need to support Taiwan now. If China starts war again taiwan then Bharat should free Tibet. Remember chinese soliders are so scared from war so it will easy to win against China. Peace is so costly but china will know when lost war. World has many concern but major are China's policy and Islamic ideology. Both need to stop.

[leoshueh]

During the course of the so-called punishment, Taiwan's stock market posed new high of this year, while over 4, 000 stocks listed on China's Shanghai Stock Exchange tumbled. Who's punished? The stock markets gave the answer clearly. 😆😆😆
