It should be noted that the events occurred after two warships belonging to the American and Canadian navies passed through the Taiwan Strait.

The US Navy destroyer Ralph Johnson, carrying an “Arleigh Burke”-class guided missile, and the Royal Canadian Navy’s “Halifax” class cruiser Ottowa made a routine passage through the Taiwan Strait on September 9 .

The Chinese military claimed that the move was for show and that the ships were followed and that the response was in accordance with international law and standards. On September 11, China’s Shandong aircraft carrier approached Cape Eluanbi on the southern tip of Taiwan, approximately 111 kilometers away.

China, which considers the island of Taiwan as part of its territory and the Taiwan Strait as its territorial waters, is concerned about the US military presence in the region. For this reason, the navigation and reconnaissance activities of the US Navy in the region cause tensions between both countries.

Taiwan, which China claims is part of its territory, has had de facto independence since 1949, when the People’s Republic of China was established. The separation between mainland China and Taiwan, which emerged after the civil war, still continues. (AA)
