TAIPEI (Reuters) – The Taiwan Strait is absolutely “not within the scope of China’s sovereignty”, and any deliberate Chinese attempts to create tension will pose a real threat to global security, the island’s defence ministry said on Monday.
Peace and stability in the strait is not only a matter of concern for Taiwan, but also a common concern for free and democratic countries around the world, the ministry said in a statement.
