The Washington Times is reporting that US intelligence agencies are on alert for unexpected Chinese military activities this weekend. While there is no hint about the possible nature of such activities, they could be timed to coincide with the visit of White House National Security Adviser Thomas Donilon to Beijing. According to the Washington Times, they could be part of the Chinese response to the US$5.8 billion arms package for Taiwan that was announced by the US last month. |
