China vs Taiwan: Taiwan's bluntness to China! Will not miss retaliatory action for self-defense if needed

Posted on 1st Sep 2022 by rohit kumar

Since the visit of US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan, China has been conducting military exercises in the border areas with Taiwan. Taiwan has now bluntly called China on this. Taiwan said on Wednesday that it would not hesitate to retaliate using its right of self-defense if Chinese military forces enter its territory.

 

Will retaliate for self-defense

 

At a news briefing, Lin Wen-Huang, deputy chief of the General Staff for Taiwan's Operations and Planning, said Chinese fighter aircraft and ships had entered Taiwan's 12 nautical miles of maritime and airspace. If China continues military exercises like this, Taiwan's national army will without exception exercise the right of self-defense and counter-attack against China.

 

Taiwan's defense official said that China's large-scale military patrols are continuing near Taiwan. Taiwan alleges that China wants to create instability in its country.

Let us tell you that Taiwan has proposed a double-digit increase in the defense budget this month. To compete with China, Taiwan is preparing to buy new modern fighter aircraft from America. The US plans to approve a US$1.1 billion arms sale to Taiwan, including hundreds of missiles for fighter jets and anti-ship systems.

 

Taiwan pledges to strengthen the combat capability

 

Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense said last week that Taiwan has suffered military activity from aircraft and warships by China in recent years. The ministry vowed to strengthen Taiwan's combat capability to deter the People's Liberation Army (PLA). To counter China, Taiwan is going to invest more in fighter aircraft and war weapons equipped with advanced technologies.
