When answering questions concerning the purpose of the military exercises held domestically as well as the comment on the issue of the U.S.-Japan joint military exercises, Yang Yujin said the recent military exercises held by the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) were organized according to plans with the purpose to improve the capability of the PLA in winning local wars under information-based conditions.
