234
The plane with Nancy Pelosi, as previously announced by representatives of the apparatus of the House of Representatives, landed at Taipei International Airport. At the same time, the plane with the speaker of the lower house of the US Congress made a truly impressive detour, partially flying around the islands of Indonesia and the Philippines to enter the airspace over Taiwan from the east side - away from mainland China.
The landing of the plane with Nancy Pelosi at the Taipei airport took place at 22:45 local time - 17:45 Moscow time.
Thus, a fact is stated: combat aviation The PLA, during the flight of the aircraft with Nancy Pelosi in the direction of Taipei, did not take measures, as originally announced, to "squeeze out the aircraft" or to force it to land on one of the airfields of the coastal (relative to the Taiwan Strait) provinces of the PRC. The interception was not carried out.
At the same time, in the Chinese province of Fujian, the military activity of the PLA has reached its peak in recent times. Dozens of Chinese Air Force fighters are in the air. Also, maneuvers are performed by amphibious armored vehicles literally on the shores of the Taiwan Strait. The situation is tense to the limit. Moreover, it is such that China will either have to act after Pelosi's demarche, or admit that at the moment there is nothing (at least militarily) that Beijing can counter the US pressure on Taiwan.
