Biden says U.S. military opposes possibility of Pelosi going to Taiwan; China has issued a warning
2 min read
A Chinese MRE spokesperson said Beijing will act forcefully to respond firmly to the planned visit and take countermeasures if the US side insists.
247 – US President Joe Biden said the US military will oppose House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan.
Asked about this possible visit, Biden replied on Wednesday night the 20th: “The military is not a good idea.”
The controversy comes at an awkward time as Biden plans to speak with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping “in the next 10 days”, he said last night.
On Thursday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said Beijing would act strongly to respond firmly to the planned visit, and countermeasures would be taken if the US side insisted on a visit.
“If President Pelosi visits Taiwan, it will seriously violate the One China Policy and Conditions contained in the three China-US Joint Statements and undermine China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” Wang said.
Wang said the visit would have a serious negative impact on Sino-US relations and send the wrong signal to Taiwan’s separatist forces.
“If the US side insists on this visit, China will respond firmly and take countermeasures,” Wang warned.
