Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan: what you need to know
According to Taiwanese media, Pelosi was scheduled to begin her visit to Taiwan around 5:30 pm Kyiv time. She is supposed to leave the island tomorrow.
China has said it will retaliate with “strong measures” if Pelosi travels to Taiwan, and said it “strongly objects” to a possible visit.

This is stated in a statement by Pelosi.
“Our Congressional delegation’s visit to Taiwan honors America’s unwavering commitment to supporting Taiwan’s vibrant democracy. Our visit is part of a wider journey to the Indo-Pacific region—including Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, and Japan—focused on mutual security, economic partnership, and democratic governance.” , Pelosi noted.

She noted that bilateral discussions with Taiwan’s leadership will focus on reaffirming our support for our partner and advancing our common interests, including advancing a free and open Indo-Pacific.”
“America’s solidarity with Taiwan’s 23 million people is more important today than ever as the world faces a choice between autocracy and democracy. Our visit in no way conflicts with the long-standing policy of the United States, which is guided by the Taiwan Relations Act of 1979, the US-China Joint Communique and the Six Guarantees. The United States continues to resist unilateral efforts to change the status quo,” Pelosi concluded.
The Lady of the House Speaking.
Full credit to the old girl. I was not a fan but in her 80’s, she went to Kyiv to support Zel and now she’s doing the same for Taiwan.
I would reiterate how Chinese people behave in a democracy; just like us! When they have freedom they do very well; eg HK under the British mandate and Taiwan.
HK is lost because the chicoms reneged on their agreement to retain British democracy. Now it is a filthy sewer.
So Taiwan must be protected.
But so should Ukraine…..
