Taipei [Taiwan], September 18 (ANI): Taiwan has sharply criticised China's recent military parade in Beijing, saying the spectacle of advanced weaponry was an attempt at intimidation rather than a means of building international goodwill, as reported by the Taipei Times. When asked whether it could counter Chinese intercontinental ballistic missiles displayed at Beijing's military parade, Sun said Taiwan's defence ministry closely studies Chinese military advancements and assesses their potential threat. Sun stressed that military parades and real-world capabilities should not be conflated, noting that the two are 'completely different things,' as reported by the Taipei Times. Instead, the exhibition serves to highlight the nation's progress in defence technology and its readiness to respond to emerging threats. The exhibition highlights Taiwan's commitment to strengthening its defence posture, even as Beijing seeks to flex its military muscles on the world stage, as reported by the Taipei Times.
