Beijing has warned it is watching closely as Taiwan prepares to hold military drills a stone's throw from China's shores.
Beijing has warned Taipei not to 'stir up trouble' as Taiwan prepares to hold military drills in a group of front-line islands just a stone's throw from China's shores.The land-to-sea live-fire drills, which Taiwanese authorities have stressed are routine rather than retaliatory, will be held April 2 on the Kinmen islands, an archipelago on the other side of the Taiwan Strait, which Taiwan administers as an outlying county.
The ruling Chinese Communist Party in Beijing has never ruled there, and the democratically elected government in Taipei rejects the long-running sovereignty claim.'Taiwan is China's Taiwan, and there is no such thing as 'forbidden and restricted waters' in the Xiamen-Kinmen waters,' Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson Col. Wu Qian said at a monthly press briefing on Thursday.
