In July, the Chinese military flew only 17 sorties near Taiwan, none involving fast-moving fighter aircraft. Taiwan’s Republic of China Air Force issued radio warnings to approaching PLA warplanes beginning at 7:47 a....

Chinese Media Calls Rocket Debris Fears Anti Intellectual After Long March 5B Lands

An op-ed published on Global Times’ website on Sunday argued that it was “seriously anti-intellectual” to think the debris from the Chinese rocket was “especially risky,” and accused U.S. media of publishing “smears” about the spacecraft. The outlet aligned with the Chinese Communist Party also said U.S. “fussiness” over the rocket’s descent was a “low ploy,” but accepted that Beijing needed to “release more information actively” in future. “During the nearly 60 years of space activities, the calculated fall of rocket debris has not caused casualties so far,” Global Times wrote....

Chinese State Media Warns Of Severe Military Measures If Taiwan Office In U.S. Changes Name

The Global Times referred to a Financial Times report from Friday saying that President Joe Biden’s administration is considering allowing the office to change its name from the “Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office” (TECRO) to the “Taiwan Representative Office.” The Chinese paper warned such a change would seriously anger Beijing and provoke a “severe” military and economic response: “If the U.S. and the Taiwan island change the names, they are suspected of touching the red line of China’s Anti-Secession Law, and the Chinese mainland will have to take severe economic and military measures to combat the arrogance of the U....
