ADMIRAL MARCOS SAMPAIO OLSEN:

"These (international) observers, which in Formosa operation 2024 already correspond to 10 countries and, particularly, the United States and China with troop participation. The United States with infantry and China with special operations troops."

"The important thing is to update procedures, exchange knowledge and interoperability. That is, to allow these forces, if necessary, to operate in an integrated way. Also, there is no way not to recognise it, this is a confidence-building instrument."
