Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen inspected military training on a remote island located in the Taiwan Strait. This appears to be an attempt to show both domestically and internationally that the Chinese military remains on high alert during the Spring Festival holidays that begin next week.
On the 30th, President Tsai visited the Army, Navy, and Air Force bases on Penghu Island in the Taiwan Strait, and in the Army, she observed training of mechanized infantry units.
The training was based on the assumption that the enemy would conduct reconnaissance with drones and then attack a nearby airfield with five helicopters.
During the training, two of the aircraft were shot down with handheld surface-to-air missiles, but enemy soldiers and others descended from the remaining three aircraft and tried to occupy the base, but the Taiwanese military counterattacked with tanks and other equipment and took control. I checked the steps.
In the speech that followed, President Tsai encouraged the troops, saying, ``The troops in Penghu are in a strategically important position and have a heavy responsibility.I appreciate your dedication to national security.''
Amid growing concerns that China may make some kind of military move following the results of the recent presidential election, the president's visit on the 30th includes warnings against the Chinese military during the Spring Festival holidays starting next week. This appears to be an attempt to demonstrate to both the public and the public that the situation is in perfect condition.
