China Threatens To ‘Smash’ Taiwan If US Continues To Send Arms And Advisors
China prepared to ‘smash' Taiwan independence as US preps arms package. A Chinese defense ministry spokesman said an increase in exchanges between the U.S. and Taiwanese militaries is an “extremely wrong and dangerous move.”It added that it is prepared to “resolutely smash any form of Taiwan independence” as the U.S. reportedly prepares to accelerate the sale of defensive weapons and other military assistance to the self-governing island democracy.
Team Biden will soon send Taiwan military weapons and equipment from its stockpiles but will require Congress to pay to backfill that delivery.
The State Department in recent years approved the sale of Stinger anti-aircraft missiles, M1 Abrams main battle tanks, amphibious assault vehicles (AAVs), F-16 fighter aircraft and munitions, Volcano minelayers and more.
Such capabilities could potentially be pulled from U.S. stockpiles and fast tracked to Taiwan now.
