of the participating countries, increasing the level of strategic cooperation between the participating parties and strengthening the ability to respond to various security threats statement of the ministry of defense of chinass whether these are regular exercises or not after the start of the war, the first large-scale exercises with the participation of russia and foreign armies and here and china and india, which have very difficult relations with each other, as well as mongolia, tajikistan, and belarus, how should we treat such exercises? they have contacts, they are practicing interaction on the borders, you just have to see where these countries are located. if you exclude belarus, which is simply joining because it is joining, this is the only opportunity to take your soldiers somewhere there to show what they have learned over the last six months of continuous training . they have already started training, they are going day by day, belarus is a separate story, but the fact that the russians, the chinese, india are taking part is such a serious situation, they are constantly dragging everyone into this story kazakhstan because they need to be shown the contacts of other countries of central asia and

and it is part of a bilateral agreement on cooperation with russia, according to the statement of the ministry of defense of china, the aim is to deepen practical and friendly cooperation with the armies of the participating countries, increasing the level of strategic cooperation between the participating parties and strengthening the ability to respond to various security threats stated in china. how do you assess this statement? well, china , russia and india, which also have difficult relations with china. let's say joint military exercises, please. in fact, it really looks like the formulation of a certain axis of the autocrats, you know, the dictators with ukraine, which stands together with taiwan, that is, in fact, on the same side you can take it this way. it is a really powerful message to the united states. because although he continues to say that we and russia are partner countries, we and russia stick together, he emphasizes to me that this is not a union at all and that china has no obligations to the russian federation, in addition, china is severing many economic spheres of cooperation with russi

of information, while you are uh, the live broadcast has already received an answer, otherwise the most interesting answer from many state institutions of the people's republic of china is the ministry of defense around taiwan in six large-scale military exercises will be held in places. here is my phone. and i don't know, i can't see. this is in the frame. here is this map of the exercises that will be carried out around the entire perimeter. taiwan's naval air force. and the people's republic of china, which is so geometrically, it all very much resembles a blockade, but geometrically. yes, this is very reminiscent of a blockade, that is, uh, official beijing but just uh will show the taiwanese comrades what will happen and how, uh, in the event of a further escalation of tension, yes, but you ask, but what they say here are simple residents, for example, of beijing and in general, the mainland of china, after all, the people do not believe that in the near, but in the future, and it will happen, some serious armed conflict between the shores of the taiwan strait. i did n't believe in it either. let me explain. uh, my approach. the fact is that, after all, while china always protects, but th

of course, may be different for what china intends to do. and now, after the piloshi landed , a statement from the ministry of defense followed. uh, china well, first let's quote the statement from the eastern command ofi the official representatives of the eastern command said since the evening of the second of august. nuak eastern command will conduct a series of military operations around the island, taiwan joint sea and air exercises in the airspace north southwest and southeast of the island of taiwan, they will include long -range live firing and in the taiwan strait, prc will also conduct live firing in waters, on the east coast of the island. taiwan and finally the statement of the ministry of defense on high combat readiness. the people's liberation army of china is on high alert and is launching a series of military operations to counter the current situation of resolutely defending national sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as curbing the interference of external forces and separatist attempts to create an independent taiwan. predicted. yes? yes. although, here we were in a five-hour live program and there were reports that it had already begun yes air duels, and between the fi

china sea was beijing's response to the visit of nancy pilosina, taiwan 's political leadership of china regarded the actions of an american official as an aggressive provocation against the ministry of defense. taiwan reacted sharply to the start of the exercise, the department said that china is trying to solve the problem in the region by force and threats. in case of need to repulse the enemy, immediately after that, the taiwanese military distributed footage with fighters, submarines, military, helicopters and other military equipment, the us senate approved the accession of sweden and finland to nato during the voting. only one republican spoke out against the expansion of the military bloc. now the document on the entry of stockholm and helsinki into nato must be signed by joe biden. he has already welcomed the decision of the senators, then the papers will be sent to the military. to this, the accession of the two northern states to nato was supported by more than half of the countries included in the bloc according to the rules. this must be done by all participating states. the us ratified the resolution on the entry of new members, despite their fact that american veterans had pre

of taiwan plus. she joins her san skype from taipei. china has been threatening military drills. what is taiwan making of it? well, the ministry of national defense here has that they anticipated it, but not a big the level of which china's drills would take place. china up and up. that's been foreign dignitaries come in, selecting that military muscles by doing drills or incursions, just about touching the borders of taiwan. that median line that separates china and taiwan, both in the water and in the air. but this time, the drills the china announced just less than half an hour after. and i do believe the landed and they have given us quite a detailed map then plans of it out in social media. and on the a news agency this time it has be seen as b escalate. escalate they from a previous drills. now the ministry of national depend years say that they feed china trying to stress and high once sovereignty. they say these drills will take place for about 3 days after pillows. believe they'll be 6 fly far drills. they will threaten main maritime ports with one of those drill, taking place in water is just 20 kilometers off support city, a key port,

of the biggest allies that the u. s. then one of china's biggest, i wouldn't say a bursary, you know, one of the mighty powers that china faces up to. so the ministry of defense has confirmed that there have been in person to silence her toil waters and in the air also. but they haven't confirmed those numbers. so the reassuring reports that at least 20 aircraft had breached that line, which separates the 2 sides and 20 and can naval ships. now each time there is some kind of a breach or an incursion. i want to have to scramble it has to scramble is ship. worship is that it's got to scramble. it's fighter jets to monitor and get a warrant into whatever vehicle or military vessel has crossed into that. then if they do not have warning, they're then called enemy be enemy vessels. and so yes, we have to react in such a way i want to use to reacting to these kinds of reaches. but this time there's that hyper tension because it's not just in one area, it is around the whole of the main island, of course. so while these military maneuvers continue, people on the grounds, the public nervous. mr. paul, and i'm sorry i do have to interrupt john to the blank and the us

purpose of the exercise at the behest of the united states is preparing for a confrontation with china, the protesters unfurled a poster near the building of the south korean ministry of defense with slogans to stop the rehearsal of the war that the current exercises of the united states and south korea are provocative and worsen the situation in the region, secretary of the russian security council nikolai said today patrushev the ministry of justice of japan from that day began to collect lists of those who suffered from the activities of the so-called unification church, according to preliminary estimates of such several thousand citizens in the country fight this religious organization, which is often referred to as a sect by the japanese authorities. it started after the assassination of the ex-prime minister sinzaba and almost immediately it turned out that even in the japanese government, dozens of officials are associated with sectarians about how this affected the rating of the japanese prime minister fumiu keda and why he suddenly stopped going to work in the report of our own correspondent in japan sergey mingazhev a sharp fall in the rating of the newly reorganize

of military exercises in six areas of the sea around ivan from august 4 to 7. the ministry of defense announced that they would hold a thread of military operations earlier, china threatened to strike if the american plane landed in taipei 20 minutes before landing, beijing closed the airspace on the east coast raised fighter jets and sent them towards the taiwan strait, the united states also raised its fighter jets from bases in japan and directed four warships to the east of the island. democratic regime and in the event of an attack, the deceased promises military support, her help in the event of armed aggression, and germany offers vanya the first ship with ukrainian grain is expected in istanbul at midnight after it is docked, it will be inspected by a commission with the participation of representatives of ukraine, turkey , and the united nations. meanwhile, german officials have been urged to look for permanent alternative routes for the export of ukrainian grain in order not to rely on the goodwill of russia. berlin emphasizes that every ship that leaves the ports safely is a glimmer of hope for ukraine and the whole world however, putin's words shoul

of military exercises in six areas of the sea around taiwan from the fourth on august 7. and the ministry of defense announced that they will conduct a number of military operations before chinanutes before landing, beijing closed the airspace on the east coast , raised fighter jets and sent them towards the taiwan strait, the united states also raised its fighter jets from bases in japan and headed east to the island, four samaritan warships assured that her visit does not contradict the policy of the white house and does not violate china's sovereignty. washington does not recognize independence

military exercises by china, taiwan's defense ministry says that china simulated an attack against the main island of taiwan involving cyberattacks, a large number of fighter jets and warships operating daily around the taiwan strait with many entering taiwan's air defense identification zone and some crossing taiwan strait's median line. beijing also launched nearly a dozen ballistic missiles, some flying directly over taiwan for the first time ever. but one of the key takeaways from what we saw over the past several days according to military experts is that china demonstrated that they can put together a blockade of taiwan that doesn't require constant naval presence offshore and that shipping and air traffic can be blocked by the threat of missiles despite the increased tensions and aggressive maneuvering by china's military around taiwan, life here in taipei really hasn't stopped. there are cars on the road, people walking around outside, the shopping district has been busy. and all weekend there were long lines outside of restaurants. almost as if people here are immune almost unfazed by the constant military threats from china and it really

possible visit of the speaker of the us house of representatives, the ministry of defense and ivaniv has raised the level the combat readiness of the national army at the same time as china unplanned military exercises in the south china sea, in social networks they even published a video with the movement of military equipment towards the fujian province. and this is literally 150 km from taiwan. well, here it is worth explaining why in beijing they are annoyed by peles' visit to taiwan. the thing is that china considers taiwan to be its inseparable part and warned of serious consequences if the peles' visit takes place . the republic of china, known as taiwan, recognizes itself as independent from china, and mainland china and the island of taiwan adhere to one china , that is, each considers itself to be the only true china and its rival the temporarily uncontrolled territory of the united states, although it does not maintain diplomatic relations with taiwan, but undertakes to ensure security islands from external threats, in particular, weapons and military equipment are supplied there. well, chinese pro-government journalists even published articles with threats wh

of trump but nevertheless, if china could develop economically, but now they already have relations they will completely move into the plane of competition well, but along with this, yesterday, peter the ministry of defensesed the chinese planes and ships of the people's army of the people's republic of china for carrying out mock exercises on the attack on the main island and ivaniv on saturday, the day before yesterday. 13 ships until 17:00 local time yesterday for operations around the thai strait, some of which crossed the median line and threatened the status quo of the strait, the message said the ministry of defense of taiwan from the armed forces of the activists also reported that several ships of the chinese army were detected near the thai straits, some of them crossed the middle line. i understand that there is no maritime border between them, this is the middle line, it is possible, i am wrong, it is possible to simulate an attack on heavy artillery, the armed forces of taiwan responded for this situation, they used an alarm broadcast, combat patrol aircraft, patrol naval ships and land-based missile systems informed the ministry of defense to taiwan how do you assess what happened there yes

the chinese foreign ministry again demanded to respect the principle of one china, a strong protest was expressed in the text of the ministry of defensethe announcers of the central television read out. this visit sent a false signal to separatist forces advocating so -called taiwan independence and completely exposed the true nature of the united states as a disturber of peace and stability in the taiwan strait by completing one large-scale maneuver in the taiwan area. today, the chinese army launched another 22 aircraft and six ships to the island, the new cadres of the eastern command kunzin 500 reconnaissance aircraft with electronic warfare escorted by fighter jets near the honghu islands of beijing. it is important to show that he controls all steps towards taiwan. moreover, the american fleet too next to ronald's movements. reagan is watched, both in beijing and in taipei, discussing every mile and course change. now, an aircraft carrier east of taiwan and white house indo-pacific coordinator cam has already promised that states will soon enter the taiwan strait area to ensure freedom of navigation there. another step towards a

of the sea around ivanovka from the fourth to the seventh of august. and the ministry of defense announced that they would conduct a series of military operations through the visiting strip. earlier, chinaif an american plane landed in taipei 20 minutes before landing beijing closed the airspace on the east coast raised fighter jets and sent them towards the taiwan strait to the united states also raised their fighter jets from the base of japan and but on east to the island, four warships , nancy polozi herself assured that her visit does not contradict the policy of the white house and does not violate the sovereignty of china. america's solidarity with 20-3 million residents and ivans is today more important than ever because the world is facing a choice between autocracy and democracy. noted the speaker of the house of representatives, i will remind you that washington does not recognize the independence of taiwan, but supports the democratic regime there. ivan and the united states will eventually lead to increased aid to ukraine, this was explained in an interview as a matter of fact by the director of the north america program of the ukrainian foreign policy council prizma oleksa

taiwan says, china's show of force around its waters is getting more menacing. the taiwanese defense ministry says after 2 days of posturing, chinese aircraft and warships have now rehearsed an attack on the island. it also says the chinese feet crossed the unofficial buffer in the taiwan strait, which separates the 2 sides. china has been staging its biggest ever military drills off taiwan coast following years. how speaker nancy pelosi is visit to the island asian gets it is taiwan part of its territory and it says the trip violated it's one china policy. typical pollen is the international editor of taiwan plus. she explains why there could be a wider security threat. those i thought outlying islands are the closest point you can get to mainland china. in fact, one of them can men is only about 10 kilometers away from foot young province. now they're used to seeing this kind of activity around a military activity from china and seeing that, that kind of intimidation in that area. but this time at china's also focusing, as we know, it's military drills, not just in those areas, but also on the main island. in f

first four days of the military exercise by china, taiwan's defense ministry says china simulated an attack against the main island of taiwan, involving cyber attacks, a large number ofer jets and warships operating daily around taiwan with many entering taiwan's air defense identification zone and some crossing the taiwan strait median line. beijing also launched nearly a dozen ballistic missiles, some of them flying over taiwan for the first time ever, but according to the military experts here, what they are saying as far as the key takeaways from the last several days is that china demonstrated that they can put in a blockade of taiwan, and it doesn't really require a constant naval presence offshore, and that shipping and air traffic can be blocked by just using the simple threat of missiles. while we don't yet know the future, not only of these military drills or just in general of what the future holds for hostilities, in the taiwan strait and around taiwan, it's likely that what we are seeing by china's military, the increased tensions and aggressive maneuvering around taiwan could be the new normal according to chinese state media from now on. china will con

of serious consequences. in the case of the visit , the ministry of defense of taiwan, in turn, stated that it intends to defend itself against any chinese threats as far as it can go in chinaue to the visit of the speaker of the house of representatives of the american congress, we will talk with viktor kostiantynov, associate professor of the department of international relations of shevchenko kyiv university who is joining us from kyiv, victor, this visit by the encipilo to taiwan caused a great storm from the point of view of regional security, in your opinion, to what extent is it justified, why the usa, which until now maintained a semblance of normal relations with china, decided now to escalate actually he is not unpredictable and the escalation has already begun a long time ago, even before the arrival of trump and washington. not to mention biden, but today such a visit really seems a little out of time both in the context of global security and in the context of regional security because it is superimposed on the very complex word problems today there are not enough security problems not only in europe, but also in educational asia. some commentators try to compa

during the first four days of military exercises taiwan's defense ministry says china simulated an attack against the main island of taiwan involving cyberattacks, a large number of jets and warships operating daily around taiwan with many entering taiwan's air defense identification zone and some crossing the taiwan strait median line. beijing also launched a dozen ballistic missiles, some flying over taiwan the first time ever and several landing in japan's exclusive economic zone. according to military experts, one of the key take-aways from the past several days is china demonstrated that a blockade of taiwan doesn't necessarily require constant naval presence offshore and stopping shipping and air traffic can be blocked by the threat of missiles. while china's live fire military exercises continue now a fifth day it is worth noting there's been a big difference between how the international community has reacted to these drills compared to how people here in taiwan are reacting. while some experts internationally are viewing this as a dress rehearsal for a potential war, many people here in taiwan, rosemary, are just continuing with life as normal. they've b

china principal for the sake of security in the region. time one's defense ministry says it's used flat to drive away drones flying over one of its islands, close to mainland china. the incident happened in the strength between taiwan and the mainland. there are a number of time when these islands close to china and tie one can men is the city of islands over flown by those drones in the 1950s. it was shelled by by jing the u . s. considered using nuclear weapons to protect it. she you is part of the cayman islands. that's a chinese mainland. in the back of the photo, you can see them. china's warned ships to avoid the area for the next 72 hours because of poor flexion. men. half the world's annual shipping goes through this area. when t song is a specialist in china, taiwan relations, he thinks beijing's drills and to de, legitimize. ty pays claim on us only that part of the world near tower straight accounts for more than half the wall was maritime commerce. so in that sense, certain and a very critical feeling of communication, chuck point way, which is also lives raising a lot of interest and concern by other countries in the region. a
