Taiwan\u2019s Presidential Office accused China of stoking tensions with Japan for political advantage, hours after Chinese maritime authorities announced plans for live-fire missile exercises in the Yellow Sea. China\u2019s Maritime Safety Administration issued a navigation alert stating that the People\u2019s Liberation Army would carry out missile launches with live munitions in the central Yellow Sea from Tuesday through Thursday, as reported by The Taipei Times.<\/p>\n
According to The Taipei Times, China also released a travel warning on Friday, claiming Chinese nationals in Japan faced rising criminal risks, an advisory widely seen as retaliation for comments made by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. During a parliamentary session, Takaichi stated that a Chinese naval blockade of Taiwan could be classified as a \u201csurvival-threatening situation\u201d for Japan, potentially activating its self-defence mechanisms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
