US Condemns China Missile Launches, Orders Aircraft Carrier Group Toward Taiwan
(Worthy News) – The White House condemned the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) launch of 11 ballistic missiles into the waters around Taiwan Thursday. The administration also said that it would move an aircraft carrier strike group into the region to defend its partners and allies.
“The People’s Republic of China launched an estimated 11 ballistic missiles towards Taiwan which impacted toward the northeast, the east, and southeast of the island,” said White House National Security Council communications coordinator John Kirby.
Several of the missiles launched by China traveled over Taiwan and landed in the waters of Japan’s exclusive economic zone, which is an area 200 nautical miles (230 miles) from the country’s coast. The aggressive move followed a highly-publicized visit of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taipei earlier in the week. [ Source: Epoch Times (Read More…) ]
