Taiwan’s Defense Ministry says a large Chinese military force has been detected near island

Yes you did- BTW:

Academic Graham Allison observed in 2016, "None of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council have ever accepted any international court's ruling when (in their view) it infringed their sovereignty or national security interests. Thus, when China rejects the Court's decision in this case, it will be doing just what the other great powers have repeatedly done for decades."

Following the arbitration result, former Secretary-General of the Maritime and Oceans Affairs Center of the Philippines Alberto Encomienda asserted that the Philippines government had lied when it stated that it had exhausted bilateral discussions prior to beginning the arbitration proceedings. According to Encomienda, who had overseen the bilateral negotiations for the Philippines side prior to the arbitration proceedings, "Manila never responded" to repeated efforts by China to resume negotiating. In Encomienda's view, the Philippines government was responsible for escalating tension on the South China Sea issues.

And anyone familiar with this matter, knows it was the USA, that pushed the Philippines - not to seek a bilateral solution - but to make use of a corrupt and open towards manipulation institution - that is attached to the UN.

Tribunal Statement:

The tribunal had considered the issues related to the maritime areas in South China Sea. It declared its position on the award that:

Its position reaffirms that the tribunal's rulings do not apply to China's territorial sovereignty claims over the islands and maritime features in South China Sea, and the award would not make any implication in China's sovereignty claims.



Therefore China has every right to reject and simply to ignore that ruling from the Hague tribunal
That does not excuse anything that China decides to do

We set our limits not them
 
It is becoming more clear than ever that the West is going to have to starve Chinas economy. If they had done so a decade ago, how many hundreds of thousands would be alive today in Ukraine when Putins military couldn't be fed by China?

The sanctions against Russia would have been so much more effective if not for Chinas support of them. Now, they seem poised to strike Taiwan.


TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — China’s secretive military appears to be up to something around Taiwan, but it’s unclear whether it’s a formal military drill.
Taiwan’s Defense Ministry said Tuesday that it has detected a dozen Chinese naval ships and 47 military planes in the past 24 hours but no live-fire activity as in previous military exercises. The deployment covers a wider area this time, with additional ships going beyond Taiwan into other parts of the Pacific, defense officials said at a news conference.
Here’s a grammatically corrected version of your message:


Taiwan is plagued by extreme Han supremacism. However, it could leave the danger zone within five years by implementing the following changes:


  1. Introduce English as an official language, alongside Japanese and Portuguese.
  2. Change the name to Formosa.
  3. Issue 500,000 to 1 million passports to foreigners.
  4. Switch Formosa's Mandarin Chinese character writing to Latin script.
  5. Change the national flag.
if these steps are taken, the CCP may forget the name Formosa, and the world will recognize Formosa as an independent state.
