Beijing: The Chinese People’s Liberation Army’s Eastern Theater Command condemned the United States and Canada for sending a pair of warships through the Taiwan Strait this week, calling this step a threat to stability in the region, Radio Havana Cuba publishes.
The US Alreigh Burke-class missile destroyer USS Dewey and the Canadian frigate HMCS Winnipeg, crossed that seaway on Thursday and Friday, Reuters reports.
“The United States and Canada conspired to provoke and agitate problems, seriously endangering the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait. Taiwan is part of Chinese territory. The theater forces always maintain a high level of alert and determinedly counteract all threats and provocations”, the agency cites a statement from the Asian country in this regard.
Meanwhile, the US military assured that the passage of these warships “demonstrates the commitment” of Washington and its allies to “a free and open Indo-Pacific.”
