China kicks off military drills near Taiwan, warns island's "independence" means war
The military exercise follows U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's pledges to strengthen military ties with Japan, the Philippines,
to counter China in the region and deter Beijing's seizure of Taiwan.
During his trips to the Asian countries last week
, Hegseth pledged missile systems, troops and other military resources to build up defense in the region against China. Washington would provide "credible deterrence" in the Indo-Pacific region, including across the Taiwan Strait, he said.
