OTTAWA – Canada has sailed a warship through the sensitive Taiwan Strait, the Canadian government said, three months after a similar operation and amid strained ties between Beijing and Ottawa.
Such passages typically upset China, which claims democratic and self-ruled Taiwan as part of Chinese territory.
In April, Beijing condemned a French decision to send a frigate through the strait as illegal, and China has also been upset by U.S. navy ships passing through the same waterway. (Reuters)
