This seem all too familiar... "Oh we are just doing military exercises" After a few months... an invasion of Ukraine happened....☹

Tsiwan president should voluntarily give up her office.

When people say China they should specify which one, the comunist one or the nationalist one

[marcosgarvey]

I hope a special military reunification comes sooner after the drills.

A provocative showcase to a provocative visit to a provocative... (so on so forth)

Russia has set up a Florida Relation Act that provide Florida full protection including setting naval base in Miami and 39 nuke Silos around Florida. While Russia respect 1 USA policy, Russia has the unchallenged obligatory rights to sell arms to Florida and help Florida establish a communist regime by 2035.

Taiwan is its own country. Saying otherwise does not make it so.

A govenment of smartest people never furious.

Democratic world *cannot tolerate* a behavior like this from the Chinese 🇨🇳 regime.
There must be consequences.

I don’t think anybody in the right mind would recognize Taiwan as part of China. Clearly an independent country with their own self governing body. Plus, if they wanted to be part of such a lovely country that is China, wouldn’t they be running into their arms?

[emanueol]

Tracing US strategic actions over recent decades, all are rooted on monetary benefit (only to US). Taiwan strait tension was created very successfully (sadly on humanity) and made constant by having Reagan stimulus response to China military drills for constant tension degree.

What is for real and highly visible now is Chip 4 alliance? On what basis, US can act as caller? What REAL BENEFIT to Korea, Japan and Taiwan? On world peace and humanity development, US is no longer for any country to blindly follow - any European countries, any Asian countriea, Australia New Zealand as well North and Sounth American continents.

Nothing to be scared of just ordinary training. Besides what do you expect when you trespass after being warned not to.

[evenblackercrow]

they had better actually have a plan other than their drills--see russia for how well that works

[sogerc]

The separatist Beijing should be liberated by Taipei.

In China, (1) the state can force Chinese nationals at home and abroad to carry out military activities in their respective countries (National Defense Mobilization Law, effective in 2010); (2) the state can force Chinese nationals at home and abroad to do spy activities in their respective countries. (National Intelligence Law, effective 2017). Chinese citizens who do not follow the instructions and orders of the Chinese government will be arrested and have no option to decline.
Together, these two laws create the most dangerous security situation for every country.
There are at any time 25, 000 Chinese professional spies in Japan. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇺🇸🇯🇵

China is bringing east Asia wisdoms to the west.

Drill, drill, could only do drill but not combat with enemies...but when comes local jiping will stall tankers against innocent public who protest against bank inefficiency...as well America is not a trust worthy country for Taiwan as it has shown its color in Ukraine war. So ultimately what is the result of this drill. Only time pass for you me and the world
