FILE -In this undated file photo released by the Taiwan Ministry of Defense, a Chinese PLA J-16 fighter jet flies in an undisclosed location. China flew more than 30 military planes toward Taiwan on Saturday, Oct. 2, 2021, the second large display of force in as many days. TAIPEI, Taiwan — China flew 56 fighter planes toward Taiwan on Monday in the largest show of force on record, continuing the three days of sustained military harassment against the self-ruled island.
China claims democratically ruled Taiwan as its own territory, to be brought under its control by force if necessary. It refuses to recognize the island’s government and has increasingly sought to isolate the independence-leaning administration of President Tsai Ing-wen. Taiwan and China split during a civil war in 1949, and Beijing opposes Taiwan’s involvement in international organizations. Taiwan announced on Sept. 23 that it had applied join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, a week after China submitted its own application to join the trade pact.
In response to a similar statement over the weekend from the U.S. State Department, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs had said that the U.S. selling weapons to Taiwan as well as ships navigating the Taiwan Strait were “provocative action that harmed U.S-China relations.”

US raises concern as China flies warplanes south of TaiwanChina flew 16 warplanes over waters south of Taiwan on Sunday as the U.S. expressed concern about what it called “provocative military action.” China has been sending military planes into the area south of Taiwan on a frequent basis for more than a year. Wonder if those planes use any American made parts? I'd have thought surrounding the Chinese with military bases and aircraft carrier groups was the greater provocative military act, poor Taiwan is stuck in the middle, a reachable pawn in the American poke tiger game. The U.S government and Chinese government are in bed together. Just a show.
