TAIPEI—Eight Chinese navy ships remain in the waters around Taiwan, the island's defense ministry said on Tuesday, April 11, 2023, after the end of three days of war games, as Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen criticised Beijing for its 'irresponsible' behaviour. China began the exercises on Saturday after Tsai returned to Taipei following a meeting in Los Angeles with U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Kevin McCarthy. China, which warned the U.S. not to allow Tsai to visit or meet McCarthy, has never renounced the use of force to bring the democratically governed island under Beijing's control.
