Canada Sends Warships Through Sensitive Taiwan Strait

Ralph Jennings

   TAIPEI, TAIWAN - The Canadian navy has, in the last three months,
   passed two warships through the Taiwan Strait, a move analysts say is
   probably an expression of Canadian support for Washington and
   opposition to China.

   U.S. naval ships have transited the strait, a potential military
   flashpoint between Taipei and Beijing, 10 times since mid-2018, showing
   support for Taiwan and sending warnings to China against threatening
   its Asian neighbor.
