China war games: Beijing naval forces surround Taiwan
China has been accused of circling Taiwan in large-scale naval and air force exercises.
Taiwan says China’s latest war games are blatant provocations that seriously undermine regional peace and stability.
It has been warning of an increase in Chinese military activity over the past five years.
Beijing views the island as its own territory, a claim which Taiwan’s government rejects.
Wen-Ti Sung is a non-resident fellow with the Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub. He says the escalation is concerning, but not surprising.
