💨 Abstract

Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense reported the detection of two Chinese PLA aircraft and seven PLAN vessels near Taiwan on January 1, with one aircraft crossing the median line and entering Taiwan's southwestern Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ). Similar activity was reported on Tuesday and Monday. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte criticized China's stance, citing China's nuclear weapon buildup, bullying of Taiwan, and pursuit of access to critical infrastructure.
