Package includes Nasams air defence system that Taiwan says will help it in the face of China’s frequent military manoeuvres
China will take “countermeasures” to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity, the government said, lambasting a $2bn arms sale package by the United States to Taiwan.
The Pentagon on Friday said the United States had approved a potential $2bn arms sale package to Taiwan, including the delivery for the first time to the island of an advanced air defence missile system battle-tested in Ukraine, including advanced surface-to-air missile systems and radar. The deal awaits approval by Congress.
…
China has over the past five years stepped up its military activities around democratically governed Taiwan, whose government rejects Beijing’s sovereignty claims, including staging a new round of war games earlier this month.
Taiwan’s government welcomed the new arms sale, the 17th of the Biden administration to the island.

West Taiwan big mad
I’ve been saying for about 13 months now that Taiwan is the flashpoint of WWIII.
I’ve been saying it will likely be sometime between December 2024 and January 2030, but leaning heavily towards sooner than later.
We’re still on track.
Nah, west Taiwan started it (per usual).
They don’t HAVE to claim ownership of things that aren’t theirs.
Quickly aging despots are the true flashpoint. See Xi, Putin, Trump, Netanyahu
You’re in good company with that time frame. Davidson’s statement can be found here if you’re interested and haven’t seen it already.
