Under the constant instigation and stimulation of the United States, the situation in the Taiwan Strait has always been in a state of high tension. Recently, foreign media reports revealed that the United States has taken a series of dangerous moves, instructing its allies to study the response plan in the event of an armed conflict in the Taiwan Strait, that is, how to provide support for the US military, and making it clear that the Taiwan conflict will become a test of the loyalty of partners. According to Russia's TASS news agency on December 2, General Charles Flynn, commander of the US Pacific Ground Forces, pointed out in a speech at a forum organized by the Ronald Reagan Association in California that if a military conflict breaks out near the Taiwan Strait, US partner countries will face a test of loyalty to the United States. He stressed that Washington will listen to its partners and respect their interests. "We need to listen to our partners, find common ground, we must understand their actions for their own benefit," the general said. The partners General Flynn spoke of in the Taiwan Strait were the Philippines and India. According to Bloomberg, the United States has asked the Indian military to study the response plan in the event of a possible military conflict around the island.
According to sources, the Indian military is exploring aid options, one of which involves using Indian territory as a logistics center to provide support to US military ships and aircraft, as well as food, fuel and medical equipment. In addition, India is considering more radical options. Analysts**, during the conflict in the Taiwan Strait, India and China may have a direct confrontation on the common border, because there is a territorial dispute between the two countries, so once India takes the opportunity to provoke incidents, military friction or even armed conflict with China's border guards is possible, then China will have to fight on the two fronts of the Taiwan Strait and China and India. The report also disclosed that India has a third plan, that is, some Indian military leaders believe that if the conflict in the Taiwan Strait is short-term and the PLA quickly seizes the island, then New Delhi can only reluctantly follow the United States to issue a "stern statement", which is only a formal statement. In addition, the United States continues to sell arms to Taiwan. According to Russia's TASS news agency on December 2, Taiwan's military announced that it had signed two contracts with the United States for fighter missiles and ammunition, with a total amount of about NT$266900 million yuan (about 8..)$53.8 billion).
On November 13, the first contract was signed, which was worth 172 for air-to-air and air-to-surface missilesNT$200 million (about 5.)$50.9 billion). The missiles must be delivered by 2032 in Taitung County, where the Chihang Air Base of the 7th Fighter Wing of the Taiwan Air Force is located, and where the 66 F-16Vblock 70 fighter jets that Taiwan will order from the United States in the future. The second contract was signed on November 17 for the amount of 94NT$700 million (about NT$3.)029.5 billion US dollars) for the procurement of "high-explosive and other projectiles". Among them are high-explosive fragmentation tracer shells and multi-purpose and training shells for the CM-34 infantry fighting vehicle 30-mm automatic gun. Delivery is scheduled by 2029. Previously, the United States*** had approved a value of 3$32.2 billion for 30mm ammunition, as well as $1$0.8 billion in vehicle parts,** and required software.
In addition, according to ** reports, Taiwan plans to purchase 6 decommissioned Littoral Combat Ships of the US military, plans to build 6 shore-based Harpoon missile positions and 9 shore-based Hsiungfeng missile positions, and will purchase 1485 "micro drones" to strengthen the so-called "urban defense operations". China has always firmly opposed US arms sales to Taiwan. Recently, Chinese spokesperson Mao Ning made it clear that as the most important and sensitive issue in China-US relations, the US side should reflect its "no support" statement in concrete actions, stop arming Taiwan, stop interfering in China's internal affairs, and support China's peaceful reunification. On November 30, Senior Colonel Wu Qian, director of the Information Bureau of China's Ministry of National Defense and spokesman of the Ministry of National Defense, said at a regular press conference that the authorities are "relying on the United States to seek independence" and are turning Taiwan into a "reservoir" and "island of explosives". The People's Liberation Army (PLA) is ready to resolutely defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity and ensure peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.
