China’s air force sent 25 fighters and bombers over the Taiwan Strait, escalating military pressure on the government in Taipei as it boosts ties with the U.S. On April 9, the Department of State has issued new guidelines for U.S. government interaction with Taiwan counterparts to encourage U.S. government engagement with Taiwan that reflects our deepening unofficial relationship. One week later, an unofficial delegation sent by President Joe Biden visited Taiwan in a reaffirmation of the U.S. commitment to Taiwan’s security. Beijing, which views Taiwan as a breakaway province that should be put under PRC control, responded to the delegation’s visit with live military drills, its go-to response for incidents indicating closer Taiwan-U.S. relations. In response to growing Taiwan-U.S. ties, Beijing flew a record of 380 jets across the Taiwan Strait in 2020, and has broken the record for the size of jet incursions into Taiwan’s airspace twice in the three month since Biden took office. The trend reflects China’s growing reliance on military means to reign in Taiwan’s “pro-independence” behaviors. __________ Subscribe for more updates: https://www.youtube.com/MrWuinEurope?sub_confirmation=1 __________ Facebook: https://fb.me/MrWuInEurope Twitter: https://twitter.com/MrWuInEurope __________ Support our works: https://www.patreon.com/mrwuineurope You could also donate through Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=SAZUHZQ8PHGLY #china #ccp #taiwan ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Nwyutx2DCQ
