'We showed the international community that in the face of pressure and threats, Taiwan will be even more united and will absolutely not yield to suppression, nor due to obstructions stop exchanges with the world,' says President Tsai Ing-wen.
While Taiwan has reported a Chinese aircraft carrier group far off its eastern coast, it has not reported any other unusual military movements.
Fuzhou and Pingtan are both near the Taiwan-controlled Matsu islands. The announcement made no mention of Tsai’s US visit, and China frequently stages exercises along the Fujian coast.
