The Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) recently conducted military drills around the island of Taiwan, a move officials called a “serious warning” to forces pushing for independence. A spokesperson for China’s Foreign Ministry emphasized that the exercises defend national sovereignty and unity, calling them “legitimate and necessary.”
“The drills are a clear signal,” said spokesperson Guo Jiakun, referencing statements from the PLA Eastern Theater Command and the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office. “Any attempts to split the nation will be met with resolute opposition.”
While tensions over Taiwan persist, the Chinese mainland has repeatedly advocated for peaceful reunification. This latest move, however, underscores Beijing’s readiness to act against what it views as provocations. Analysts say the drills aim to deter Taiwan’s leadership from further steps toward formal independence.
