China has deployed two members of its rapidly growing aircraft carrier fleet to threaten Taiwan as tensions with the United States continue to ratchet up. As The Sun reports:
The huge carriers, the Liaoning and Shandong, are currently engaged in combat readiness training in the tightly controlled Bohai Bay, in the Yellow Sea before sailing to join an invasion war game near Pratas island…
This will be the first time China’s new aircraft carriers deploy together for the first time and the move has sparked fears in Taiwan of a possible invasion of its Pratas islands – which could then be used as a staging point for an attack on the mainland.
It comes after Beijing threatened to “reunify” Taiwan in response to Donald Trump saying he could “cut off the whole relationship” with China…
But China’s foreign minister Wang Yi said yesterday this would risk “a new Cold War” as he rejected Washington’s “lies” over its handling of coronavirus while saying Beijing was open to an international effort to find its source.

Tensions between the US and China have reached a boiling point after the Coronavirus, which was of Chinese origin.
America / USA ——–Don’t need CHINA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!CHINA NEED AMERICA / USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They “show” they have two carriers, but I’ll bet a ying to a yang, that if sank one of their carriers, a “new” one would show up soon after, remember they bought their carrier from the Russians, what makes you think, they don’t have others waiting in the wings, but still…are to type when your laughing.
I’ll see your 2 crappy ill-designed aircraft carriers and raise you 11 state-of-the art massive aircraft carriers two of which are super-carriers with F-35s onboard……let’s see what you got !
No ploblem.
CCP has been shooting at ghosts for a decade while trying to build an island out of a tiny rock near the Senkaku islands. It’s over for Emperor Xi, he just doesn’t know it yet. All (your) base are belong to USA.
Scrap metal at the bottom of the ocean…
OOh! Target practice!
Agree with both of the above comments. The world must make the Chinese communists pay for their lies and deception regarding the Wuhan virus.
The communist Chinese leadership are the most DUPLICITOUS people in the world….they LIE constantly…..It’s time for the entire world to wake up to the DANGER posed by these murderers….The world must STOP buying Chinese JUNK…
This can’t be good…..
What Cranford said…
China only has 2 Operational A/C Carriers. If the USA sinks both carriers, China will be without any Platform by which they can launch aircraft from the ocean.
