American Warship in the Taiwan Strait Causes U.S.-China Strife.
The passage of U.S. warships through the Taiwan Strait has inflamed tensions with China, which regards the Taiwan Strait as entirely its own territory.
I would like tentatively to share the insights and analysis by Mr. Trevor Filseth, a current and foreign affairs writer for the National Interest.
Spokesmen for the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), China’s military, announced on Wednesday that they had monitored and hailed an American warship during its passage through the Taiwan Strait, the roughly 100-mile channel separating Taiwan from mainland China.
