'No worries': Trump downplays Chinese military drills around Taiwan
Trump downplays Chinese military drills around Taiwan, citing no concerns over the exercises despite recent US arms sale to Taiwan. The drills, intended as a warning against Taiwan's independence and external interference, involve extensive live-firing exercises and deployment of military assets by China. Taiwan has responded by closely monitoring the situation and deploying its own resources, with its president condemning the drills as a challenge to international norms and asserting the country's commitment to ensuring its safety.
