China has retaliated against the US by sanctioning five arms manufacturers over weapon sales to Taiwan, heightening tensions in the Taiwan Strait. 🇨🇳🇺🇸 The sanctioned companies, including BAE Systems and AeroVironment, face frozen assets and business prohibitions with Chinese entities. Beijing claims these sales undermine sovereignty, while Taiwan deems them vital for defense. The move comes days before Taiwan's elections, introducing uncertainty to the political landscape. President Tsai Ing-wen asserts Taiwan's self-determination amid the geopolitical storm. The international community watches closely, wondering if diplomacy can prevail or if this escalation will reshape the balance of power in the region. 🌐🤔 #Taiwan, #ChinaUSRelations, #geopolitics,
