The US military sent a delegation to Taiwan last week to discuss details of joint exercises that the two countries are to hold in two years, defense sources said yesterday.

The US delegation made a briefing to the military, primarily representatives of the army, on how the joint exercises are to be conducted. The joint exercises will be the first since the end of official diplomatic relations between the two countries in 1979.

In order for the exercises to become reality, all the branches of the military started making preparations about a year ago.
