Taiwan warns of growing threats from China
Taiwan’s defense minister warned Tuesday that threats from China were growing daily after Beijing’s aircraft carrier and a flotilla of other warships passed south of the island in an exercise as tensions grow.
Feng Shih-kuan had called the timing of China’s air exercises a coincidence, but warned that the island still faces a military threat and called on youths to join the army. “I ask for strict training…

We train the soldiers so they can not only survive the war but also destroy the enemies and accomplish their missions,” he said, without referring to China by name.

Feng confirmed that Taiwan sent RF-16 reconnaissance aircraft to monitor the Chinese warships.
