TAIPEI (Reuters): Taiwan will fight to the end if China attacks, its foreign minister said on Wednesday, (April 7) adding that the United States saw a danger that this could happen amid mounting Chinese military pressure, including aircraft carrier drills, near the island.

Chinese-claimed Taiwan has complained of repeated military activities by Beijing in recent months, with China's air force making almost daily forays in Taiwan's air defence identification zone. On Monday, China said an aircraft carrier group was exercising close to the island.
