China flexes its muscle and conducts navy drills in four regions to 'signal its readiness to handle confrontation with the US and self-ruled Taiwan'
2020-08-25
[MAIL] China is conducting a series of military drills in four sea regions at roughly the same time, an unusual move that could be sending political signals, reports say.

Chinese maritime authorities announced the navy exercises in four locations, including the South China Sea and the Yellow Sea, in multiple notices issued between Friday and Sunday.

The naval operations were interpreted by experts as China showing 'its readiness to handle confrontation with the US and self-ruled Taiwan'.
