China has lambasted the United States over what Beijing has called the US military’s assault on “China’s sovereignty” in Taiwan and the disputed South China Sea.

The US military action comes amid overtures by Beijing to bolster unification efforts with Taiwan that Washington has pledged to support. Beijing has also sought in recent months to normalise relations with Southeast Asian nations that have weakened by conflicting claims over the strategically and economically important water space that Beijing calls the South China Sea.
