The self-governing island on Monday kicked off its Han Kuang military exercises, an annual five-day event simulating an invasion by China. While Taiwan’s drills were previously planned, Pelosi’s possible visit comes amid heightened tensions with Beijing and has drawn strong reactions in both the U.S. and China. Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense ordered F-16V jets from Hualien Air Force Base to conduct emergency takeoffs to simulate a scenario where they’d have to defend the country’s east coast, reports the Taipei Times....
The growing security relationship between Taipei and Washington—marked by regular arms sales and backed by both the executive and legislative branches of the U.S. government—is increasing favorable views of America on the island, but it has also raised the expectation of military assistance if China moves to annex Taiwan. In a poll published on Tuesday, the Taiwanese Public Opinion Foundation (TPOF) think-tank found 34.5 percent of respondents believed U.S. forces would take part in a joint defense of Taiwan against a Chinese invasion, versus 55....
The United States and China have rarely seen eye to eye on the subject since Washington dropped recognition of Taipei in favor of Beijing in 1979, backing the legitimacy of the Chinese government while at the same time only acknowledging its claim to Taiwan. Successive Chinese leaders, including Xi, have articulated an objective to one day unify the island, if necessary, by force, while U.S. administrations have maintained a “one China” policy that doesn’t support Taiwan’s independence but promises to arm Taipei so that any decision about the island’s future can be made peacefully and free of coercion....
Chen Ming-tong, the director-general of Taiwan’s National Security Bureau, told lawmakers in Taipei on Thursday that the Chinese Communist Party was unlikely to have planned such a risky military operation during a year in which “stability” was the key word for China’s leaders including Xi Jinping.

Chiu Kuo-cheng, Taipei’s defense chief, told local lawmakers that a serious airspace incursion, and not just a missile strike, could warrant a counterattack by Taiwan’s armed forces.

Story-wise, Bandai Namco unveiled a small snippet detailing the overarching narrative of Tales of Arise. At the core of the story are two planets, Dahna and Rena.
