Beijing, which views Taiwan as its own territory to be seized one day, has stepped up military and political pressure on the island in recent years as relations deteriorate.

The Fujian, Beijing’s third and biggest carrier, was launched last year but authorities have not said when it will enter service.But the country’s Eastern Theatre Command – which organises drills around Taiwan – said yesterday an “aviation unit” had carried out training “recently”, in a range of “thousands of kilometres”.Last week, China said its troops were “on constant high alert” after two ships belonging to the US and Canada sailed through the Taiwan Strait.
