China launched its most extensive war games around Taiwan on Monday to showcase Beijing’s ability to cut off the island from outside support in a conflict, testing Taipei’s resolve to defend itself and its arsenal of U.S.-made weapons.
The Eastern Theatre Command said it had deployed troops, warships, fighter jets and artillery for its “Justice Mission 2025” exercises to encircle the democratically governed island, conduct live fire and simulated strikes on land and sea targets, and drills to blockade Taiwan’s main ports.
The live-firing exercises will continue on Tuesday across a record seven zones designated by China’s Maritime Safety Administration, making the drills the largest to date by total coverage and in areas closer to Taiwan than previous exercises. The military had initially said artillery firing would be confined to five zones.
I know that depending on the degree it can sometimes be hard to find a job that aligns with that specific field, especially now that America has withdrawn a significant portion of the world’s general research funding. But here, they’re working for the tobacco plant because it’s paying near double the other starting jobs for university students. I’m not sure you can ever solve this problem when it’s impossible to know the future demand for a specific knowledge field. America, China, and most of Europe sit comfortably at just under 5% unemployment which is basically as low as most market economies can get.
