China has increased its military activities around Taiwan, which it considers a “breakaway province”, since US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi led a delegation to the island nation of more than 24 million people last August.
China considered Pelosi’s visit a “provocation” and “sending wrong signals to separatists” in Taiwan.
