TAIWAN CRISIS BETWEEN CHINA-USA
The Chinese administration defends that Taiwan is a part of China, while Taiwan states that it is an “independent country”. While the US is trying to strengthen its military alliances in the Asia-Pacific region, the Chinese administration interprets the activities of US ships in the region as a “signal of support for independence to the island” and a “provocation”.
