The exercises involved the Chinese Navy and Air Force.<\/p>\n<p>Top officials in the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) claimed the U.S. delegation, led by Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.), came to the island nation sneakily and in violation of China\u2019s territorial integrity. Wang Webin, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in China, spoke on the topic.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cChina will take resolute and effective measures to safeguard its national sovereignty and territorial integrity. A few U.S. politicians connive with the separatist forces of Taiwan independence and attempt to challenge the one-China principle,\u201d Webin stated. \u201cThis goes beyond their own abilities and is doomed to failure.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In the meantime, Sen. Markey stressed that the goal of his trip was to promote peace across the Taiwan Strait with America\u2019s allies.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I\u2019m traveling to Taiwan with a bipartisan congressional delegation to reaffirm US support for Taiwan and encourage stability and peace across the Taiwan Strait. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/SAnXwuHKe2\">https:\/\/t.co\/SAnXwuHKe2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ed Markey (@SenMarkey) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SenMarkey\/status\/1558876073487699968?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 14, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Additionally, the Biden administration has maintained its commitment to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/bill\/96th-congress\/house-bill\/2479\">Taiwan Relations Act<\/a>, which treats Taiwan as a territory of China.
