(ANSA) - BEIJING, AUGUST 08 - Taiwan has criticized China for conducting exercises in airspace and in the waters around the island, when Beijing has just renewed its willingness to continue its maneuvers in retaliation for the visit of the speaker of the American House Nancy Pelosi.
"The Foreign Minister strongly condemns China's decision to extend military exercises: China's provocation and aggression have damaged the status quo of the Taiwan Strait and raised tensions in the region," a ministry statement read.
