pledging america s unwavering support for democracy in taiwan. the ccp is not taking that lying down. china putting out a new saber rattling video this morning showing missiles at the ready and fighter jets moving into position as beijing prepares to hold its largest taiwan military drills. they will go on for six days. we haven t seen them at this magnitude in 30 years. bill: they re set to surround the island while conducting live fire exercises. some of those drills will happen in taiwanese waters. former secretary of state mike pompeo saying it is america s responsibility to hold beijing accountable. over these last 48 hours with respect to pelosi s trip is a symptom of the challenge in front of us. we weren t going to sit back and listen to the rhetoric and do nothing. if you continue down this pack and conduct live fire exercise we ll begin to take real action. there was no threat to china
security and will not back away from it. it upset china who sees the island as its own. it has conducted even while pelosi was there military drills in the area. after she left chinese war planes entered taiwan s broad air defense zone. the big stuff starts tomorrow for four days in six zones around taiwan encircling the island beijing says its armed forces will participate in live fire exercises. the action could come as close to 12 miles to the taiwan coast and will violate its nautical and air territorial space. taiwan says it will disrupt its shipping and flights and increase the chance of a dangerous run-in. the last time things got so hot in the region was back in 1995 and 1996. then u.s. naval assets were quickly deployed to the region. now in part due to the pelosi visit they are already there including the ronald reagan aircraft carrier strike group. washington continues to warn
