China continues its military exercise near Taiwan in the backdrop of US Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to the island country.

The White House spokesperson said, China's military drills are provocative, irresponsible, and raise the risk of miscalculation. Drills are



also at odds with our longstanding goal of maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, which is what the world expects, the spokesperson said.  

US National Security Council coordinator for strategic communications, John Kirby has also warned of the risk of miscalculation of the drills and added it could trigger a larger conflict.
