TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — A delegation of American lawmakers arrived in Taiwan on Sunday, just 12 days after a visit by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that prompted China to launch days of threatening military drills around the self-governing island that Beijing says must come under its control.
The five-member delegation, led by Democratic Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts, will meet President Tsai Ing-wen and other officials, as well as members of the private sector, to discuss shared interests including reducing tensions in the Taiwan Strait and investments in semiconductors.

China 'ready to defeat any provocation' as two US Navy ships sail through Taiwan Strait
https://news.sky.com/story/china-ready- ... t-12683614
It comes just weeks after US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan, an occasion that angered China.
China says it is "ready to defeat any provocation" as two US Navy warships sail through international waters in the Taiwan Strait.
It comes just weeks after US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited the region - the highest-ranking elected US official to visit in more than 25
Her visit angered China, which saw it as a US attempt to interfere in its internal affairs. Beijing regards Taiwan as a renegade province to be annexed by force if necessary.
The narrow strait has been a source of military tension since the defeated Republic of China government fled to Taiwan in 1949 after losing a civil war with the communists.
Confirming the operation, the US Navy said the cruisers Chancellorsville and Antietam had "transited through a corridor in the strait that is beyond the territorial sea of any coastal state".

US Navy Commander: Global community could intervene if China blockades Taiwan
https://en.rti.org.tw/news/view/id/2008243
US Navy Commander Karl Thomas says the global community could intervene if China mounted a blockade of Taiwan. His remarks came in a Wall Street Journal article published on Monday.
In a 60 Minutes interview broadcast on Sunday, US President Joe Biden said US troops would defend Taiwan if China were to launch an “unprecedented attack.” The White House later said US policy has not changed.
Thomas says China has the world’s largest navy and could put ships around Taiwan to bully the country. He doesn’t know if China will carry out an invasion or blockade, but adds it is his job to be ready for whatever Beijing does.

"Kina har rätt att som sista utväg tvinga till sig Taiwan, även om en ”fredlig återförening” är att föredra. Det säger Sun Yeli, talesperson för det kinesiska kommunistpartiet, inför partikongressen som inleds i helgen, enligt Reuters.
Under kongressen väntas president Xi Jinping för tredje gången väljas till generalsekreterare, och därmed få sitta kvar ytterligare fem år vid makten. Kongressen avslutas 22 oktober, och därefter inleds då sannolikt Xis tredje mandatperiod som president. AFP konstaterar att det skulle befästa hans position som ”Kinas mäktigaste ledare sedan Mao Zedong”."

Bra dokumentär. Ryssarna framstår som ofarliga jämfört med Kineserna.10 ggr fler än Ryssarna är dom, och med enorma ekonomiska resurser.
