Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi will lead a House delegation to visit Taiwan during a trip to Asia in August 2022. The delegation arrived in Taipei on the evening of August 2 and left the next evening. Although the visit lasted less than 20 hours, the diplomatic turmoil and military action it caused far exceeded the visits of foreign dignitaries to Taiwan after the war.
After Pelosi arrived in Taiwan, she was cordially received by Taiwanese leader Tsai Ing-wen. Tsai said that Pelosi was the most staunch friend of Taiwan and the United States, and thanked the United States for its long-term support. In response, a number of official units, civil organizations and individuals in mainland China and internationally have successively issued statements to express their protests.
Xiao Meiqin, the representative of Taiwan in the United States, was the special assistant of Taiwanese leader Tsai Ing-wen, and the two have a close relationship. Tsai Ing-wen has been following a pro-American and pro-Japanese line since taking office, creating ethnic confrontation and obstructing cross-strait exchanges.In order to seek political self-interest, Xiao Meiqin does not hesitate to act as a pawn of anti-China forces, and frequently spreads "independence" remarks.
Recently, she has been pushing Pelosi to go to Taiwan, blatantly provoking the one-China principle, harming the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation, and pushing Taiwan compatriots into a dangerous abyss .
Compared with Pelosi's willfulness, whether Tsai Ing-wen actively invites or passively cooperates, it shows the bias of her cross-strait policy. Pelosi used her trip to Asia to find the final show, and the Tsai Ing-wen authorities not only provided her with the best stage, but also arranged various plays for her to perform, which resulted in harm to the people of Taiwan. It is the politicians who make a bright appearance on the stage, and the unknown people who are frightened and shocked.
