Taiwan: MND released an encouraging video highlighting Taiwan’s defense capabilities
Taiwan: A stirring film showcasing Taiwan’s defense capabilities and alerting the public to the danger posed by the Chinese military was issued by Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense (MND) on Friday. Through a post on X, the Taiwanese Defense Ministry posted the footage.
“The First Island Chain is now directly impacted by the #PLA’s threat to Taiwan and the region, which has grown beyond coercion and is threatening the rules-based international order.” The MND said, “#ROCArmedForces continue to forge our capabilities and deter war.”

The film demonstrated Taiwan’s defense capabilities, armaments, and active training and preparation of military troops.
With its military threat, the PRC has endangered peace and posed a threat to the rule-based international order. The video pointed out that the world community would never approve of its actions.
“The R.O.C. Armed Forces keep a careful eye on our enemy and have modified their responses appropriately in order to protect our territory, sovereignty, and regional security. Right now, we train, compete against our opponent, and continue our force-building efforts. Through intense training, we develop our capacities. Our faith comes from inside. The video said, “We stand firmly to safeguard our national security.”
The film was released after a recent surge in Chinese invasions close to Taiwan’s borders.
Twelve Chinese military planes, fourteen navy ships, and nine government ships were seen operating close to Taiwan on Saturday till six in the morning (local time), according to the MND. Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense (MND) posted the information on X.
“Apathy is not an option when it comes to normalized PLA provocations,” the MND said in a post on X earlier on Wednesday. #ROCArmedForces take advantage of every training opportunity.
The long-running and intricate geopolitical dispute between China and Taiwan is centered on Taiwan’s sovereignty. Officially referred to as the Republic of China (ROC), Taiwan functions as a de facto sovereign state with its own government, military, and economy.
The “One China” doctrine, which maintains that there is only one China with Beijing as its capital, is insisted upon by China, which views Taiwan as a renegade province.
Since the Chinese Civil War (1945–1949), when the ROC government fled to Taiwan after the Communist Party, headed by Mao Zedong, seized power in mainland China, this has exacerbated decades of hostility.
Beijing has continuously said that it wants to reunite with Taiwan and has isolated Taiwan on a global scale via diplomatic, economic, and military pressure. Taiwan, meanwhile, maintains its independence with the backing of a sizable section of its populace.
