Looks like they are using this time of chaos to try to annex Taiwan. From the Chinese Communist propeganda organ Global Times:
Chinese PLA holds ‘regular’ drills near Taiwan in preparation for military struggle: experts
The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) reportedly held military drills featuring warplanes near the island of Taiwan on Friday, and such drills, having taken place at least four times since the traditional Spring Festival holiday in January, have become regular and are now a part of military struggle preparations against the island, mainland experts said on Friday.
Multiple PLA warplanes, including the H-6 bombers, KJ-500 early warning aircraft and J-11 fighter jets, conducted a far-sea long-range drill above southwestern waters near the island of Taiwan on Friday, Taiwan media reported on Friday, citing the island's defense authority.
The PLA warplanes entered the Western Pacific Ocean through the Bashi Channel, then returned to base along the same route they came from, reports from the island said.
Song Zhongping, a mainland military expert and TV commentator, told the Global Times on Friday that the drills were a part of preparations for the potential military struggle against the island of Taiwan, and such drills have become regular and routine.
The use of the word "struggle" is a huge tell for a commonist attempt at a power-grab. They have not changed their vocabulary or tactics in 100 years. Communism still does not work.
I am almost hoping that they try something - I can think of several dozen nations that would chip in and help restore Taiwan and to nuke China back to the stone age. China needs us way more than we need their tech toys. They have seriously overdeveloped and need the constant flow of exports to maintain their debt.
