US militarizing tiny islands near Taiwan

CSP Senior Fellow Grant Newsham appeared in this report by The World’s Patrick Winn

This week, the US and the Philippines will conduct one of their largest-ever military exercises on the tiny islands called the Batanes. The islands belong to the Philippines but are just 100 miles from Taiwan. The US military is looking to build a permanent seaport there that could serve as a base for warships. As The World’s Patrick Winn reports, Beijing, which lays claims to Taiwan, is not happy.
