It's still international airspace, so it's a moot point.

It is, but it was clearly done to provoke Taiwan. Calling this a moot point is like saying that laughing at homeless people is fine because it is not illegal.

Ah yes, China provokes other nations militarily, just don't look at who's bases surround them. The only one chomping at the bit for war here is the US

There's only like upwards of 200 US military bases surrounding China but it's Chinese aggression we must condemn 🤷‍♀️
