Chinese government warned about the possible visit of Nancy Pelosi to the autonomous territoryThe Chinese government held this Saturday (July 30, 2022) military exercises on the island of Pingtan, in the Taiwan Strait.The information was passed on by Beijing, which claims authority over the autonomous island.The announcement follows escalating tensions between China and the United States, which advocates peace in Taiwan.Beijing has made an effort to prevent US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from traveling to the island.The Democrat has not yet confirmed if she – or when – is going to Asian territory.Pelosi's possible visit prompted the White House to arrange a phone call between President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping.In the conversation, the Democrat declared that US policy on Taiwan has not changed and that the US continues to cherish democracy.China's president warned: "Those who play with fire will only get burned."China has threatened to take control of Taiwan by force and has been conducting constant military exercises near the island's territory.Xi Jinping claims that the territory has always belonged to Mainland China and that the country seeks to “unite” the entire nation.Beijing has warned Western forces not to meddle in the matter.Therefore, Pelosi's possible visit could be a risk to US diplomacy and to the people of Taiwan.a) To receive the requested information, you authorize us to use your name, email address and/or telephone number and subjects of interest (depending on the option marked and the interest indicated).Regardless of your choice, please note that Poder360 may contact you for regular matters.b) If you do not wish to give your consent to Poder360's disclosures, it is possible to proceed without receiving the information indicated above.You may, at any time, unsubscribe from our contacts or revoke the consent given below through our service channels.c) Poder360 will guarantee the exercise of any rights and prerogatives for the protection of personal data in accordance with Law 13.709/2018.For more information, read our Privacy Policy.Poder360 has sent you an email to confirm your subscription.Click on the link sent to your email to complete the registration.Haven't arrived yet?Check your spam folder if the message hasn't appeared in a few minutes.
