Taiwan has acknowledged the presence of U.S. troops on its outlying islands, including Kinmen, located just three miles off the Chinese coast. This rare admission came in response to hints from Taiwan's defense minister that U.S. forces have been training the Taiwanese military on these islands, which are considered to be on the front lines in any potential conflict with China. Additionally, Taiwan's foreign minister highlighted the construction of 'enormous' Chinese military bases on three islands surrounding Taiwan's main holding in the South China Sea, raising concerns over the escalating military tensions in the region.
