Taiwanese officials and military experts had been expecting China to make a show of military force after Lai’s inauguration. In his inaugural speech, he pledged to defend Taiwan’s sovereignty. A Chinese military spokesman described the exercises as a “strong punishment” for “Taiwan independence forces,” according to state media. He also called them “a stern warning against the interference and provocation by external forces,” a reference to the U.S. Stakes: The exercises could teach China’s military valuable lessons about how to impose a possible blockade around Taiwan. Many experts believe that if China tries to force Taiwan to accept unification, it may first try using military forces to restrict air and sea access to the island.

The proposal has not yet been formally presented to Biden, who has opposed such a step. But Blinken shifted his stance after the Russians opened a new front in the Kharkiv region, with devastating results. Russia has placed weapons right across the border from northeastern Ukraine and aimed them at Kharkiv. President Volodymyr Zelensky told The Times that the inability to fire U.S. missiles and other weaponry at the military targets gave Russia a “huge advantage.” [Ad] [Ad](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoMqPvP0S9aHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9MjIxNzY5JmxpPU1CRSZtPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3JnA9TUJFXzIwMjQwNTI0JnN0cGU9ZGVmYXVsdCZ0ZT0xJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtZXVyb3BlLWVkaXRpb24mZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJlXzIwMjQwNTI0VwNueXRCCmZF7x5QZhaJUe1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~) [Ad](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoMqPvP0S9aHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9MjIxNzY5JmxpPU1CRSZtPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3JnA9TUJFXzIwMjQwNTI0JnN0cGU9ZGVmYXVsdCZ0ZT0xJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtZXVyb3BlLWVkaXRpb24mZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJlXzIwMjQwNTI0VwNueXRCCmZF7x5QZhaJUe1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~) MORE TOP NEWS [Illuminated in red and blue police lights, a woman embraces a police officer.](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoMqPvP4QFAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjQvMDUvMjMvd29ybGQvYW1lcmljYXMvbWV4aWNvLWNhbmRpZGF0ZS1zdGFnZS1jb2xsYXBzZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDI0MDUyNCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMjQzNDUmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1ldXJvcGUtZWRpdGlvbiZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY3NjM5JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpmRe8eUGYWiVHtUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~) A woman looking for her missing relative embraces a police officer in Mexico. Daniel Becerril/Reuters -
