China strongly condemns US Navy warship sailing near the Taiwan Strait
On Saturday, in a statement, China expressed firm opposition and solid condemnation against the US Naval force warship and Coast Guard cutter Munro sailing in the Taiwan Straits.
On Friday, the Coast Guard cutter Munro and the USS Kidd missile destroyer sailed into the international waters of Taiwan Straits, the US Naval force stated. In an official statement, China noted the move was provocative; it shows that the United States is the greatest threat to stability and peace, risking the security in the Taiwan Strait.
Such activities are viewed as a warning to China, which as of late led drills close to Taiwan and has not revoked the utilization of power if necessary to bring the small island under its influence.
