00:05Lai Qingda's reported Latin America trip was pushed back.
00:10The Defense Ministry says it spotted 33 Chinese military aircraft and drones near Taiwan early
00:16on Wednesday.
00:1823 of those aircraft entered Taiwan's Air Defense Identification Zone, or ADIZ.

00:33President Lai allegedly delayed his trip with stopovers in the US due to trade talks between
00:38Beijing and Washington.
