00:08party, government, and military leadership. Our national military's position is based on the
00:13fact that China has never abandoned the use of force against Taiwan. This is why we will use

00:24sharing to grasp all kinds of indicators and signs, to assess China's possible intentions.
00:33We also need to continuously strengthen our self-defense capabilities to be able to respond
