Taiwan cannot rule out that China will hold more military drills to “stir up trouble” around Tuesday’s one-year anniversary of Lai taking office, a senior government spokesperson said on Thursday in Taipei.
Lai visited army engineers and anti-submarine helicopter crews at bases in the southern city of Kaohsiung to thank them for their efforts before the traditional Dragon Boat festival at the end of the month.
“It is only because of your hard work and dedication that the military continues to thrive and the nation’s people can live and work in peace and happiness,“ he added. “Let’s work together to protect national security.”
China's Defence Ministry and Taiwan Affairs Office said this week that Lai was a “Taiwan Strait crisis maker” who had increased antagonism and confrontation and undermined peace and stability.
China called its May 2024 drills “Joint Sword - 2024A”, held shortly after Lai took office, and in October of that year staged “Joint Sword - 2024B”.
