| Abstract | It has been another tense week across the Taiwan Strait as the People's Liberation Army continues its exercises, resulting in, according to some reports, the evacuation of civilians from nationalist-held offshore islands and Haitan Island where the third round of exercises began on March 18. Meanwhile, in Beijing, representatives attending the annual sessions of the NPC and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference repeated the government position that whoever were chosen as leaders of Taiwan, they would be leaders only of a region of China. |
