Taiwan Expresses Concern Over Unannounced PLA Military Deployments Near Its Main Island

Taiwan Expresses Concern Over Unannounced PLA Military Deployments Near Its Main Island

Taiwan's defense ministry has reported continued unannounced military activity by China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) near its territory. Between Thursday and Friday morning, 30 Chinese warplanes were detected operating near Taiwan, with 23 of these aircraft approaching closer to Taiwan's main island. This surge in activity comes as China prepares to host world leaders at the APEC summit in Shenzhen next week. A U.S.-based think tank suggests that China may be attempting to normalize large, unannounced military deployments in the Taiwan Strait. Analysts are closely watching whether these operations will continue after the APEC summit, as sustained activity could indicate a long-term strategic focus on regional military deployments and planning by Beijing.

China and South Korea Pledge Closer Ties Ahead of APEC Summit, Focus on North Korea Dialogue

China and South Korea have agreed to strengthen bilateral ties ahead of the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Shenzhen. This commitment was made during talks in Beijing between Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Hyun. South Korea is actively seeking Beijing's support to revive stalled dialogue with North Korea, hoping that China's influence can bring North Korean officials back to the negotiating table. The APEC leaders' meeting, scheduled for November 18-19, may include a separate summit between South Korean President Lee and Chinese President Xi Jinping, serving as a high-level follow-up to the ministerial discussions. The foreign ministers described their meeting as constructive and an opportunity to build momentum on economic and diplomatic cooperation.
