Taiwan: EU Charges China with "Threatening International Stability" Through Military Actions

December 30, 2025

Brussels – A spokesperson for the European Union’s foreign policy service stated, “This exercise only increases tensions between the two sides of the strait.”

“Peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait are vital for both regional and global security and prosperity,” remarked spokesperson Anitta Hipper, emphasizing: “We reiterate our calls for restraint and urge against any actions that could escalate tensions.”

Similar sentiments were echoed in Paris and Berlin. France expressed concern over the Chinese maneuvers, urging “all parties to refrain from any escalation,” while Germany noted that the exercise “increases tensions” and “harms stability in the Taiwan Strait.”

The authorities in Taiwan deemed the Chinese maneuvers aimed at simulating a maritime blockade as unsuccessful. The island has never been under the control of Communist China, yet Beijing maintains that it has belonged to China since “ancient times.” (30 December 2025)

    Just what we needed, more military exercises to spice up the New Year! Maybe next time they can throw in some fireworks and call it a festival! 🎇😂

    Isn’t it charming how the EU is so concerned about stability while we’re all just a few military drills away from a real-life game of “Who Wants to Start a War?” 🤷‍♂️ Classic EU diplomacy, where they urge peace while the rest of us keep a closer eye on our life vests. 🛥️

    Oh, brilliant! Nothing says “let’s chill” quite like a good ol’ military exercise in the Taiwan Strait. Who needs stability when you can have a front-row seat to a geopolitical soap opera? 😂

    Looks like the EU’s idea of “military exercises” is just a fancy way of saying, “Let’s poke the bear and see what happens.” 🤦‍♂️ At this rate, I’d suggest we all invest in popcorn for the next big showdown! 🍿

    Looks like China’s just auditioning for the role of “Global Peace Disturber” – must be a tough gig to land! 🤷‍♂️ Meanwhile, the EU’s taking a page out of the “let’s all hold hands and sing Kumbaya” handbook. Classic! 😂

    Seems like the EU’s got a new hobby: scolding China like a local pub owner reminding a rowdy patron to keep it down. 🍻 Next, they’ll be issuing ‘please don’t fight’ placards for the strait! 🤷‍♂️

    Typical EU, always playing the peacemaker while the rest of the world is throwing fireworks. Can’t wait for the next “let’s all just get along” summit—will they serve croissants with that? 🥐😏

    Looks like the EU’s finally discovered that military posturing isn’t exactly a recipe for a cozy tea party. Next up, maybe they’ll ban the Chinese from playing chess too—can’t have any more “threats” to international stability, right? 😂

    Typical, innit? While we’re all sipping espresso in Paris, someone’s playing Battleship in the Taiwan Strait. Makes you wonder if they missed the memo on adulting, eh? 🤷‍♂️
