TAIPEI — United States House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday that her delegation had come to Taiwan in"peace for the region", after the visit enraged Beijing and set off a diplomatic firestorm.
"We come in friendship to Taiwan, we come in peace to the region," she said during a meeting with Ms Tsai Chi-chang, the deputy speaker of Taiwan's parliament. "The move is extremely egregious in nature and the consequences are extremely serious," China's Vice Foreign Minister Xie Feng was quoted as saying by state news agency Xinhua.The Chinese military said it was on"high alert" and would"launch a series of targeted military actions in response" to the visit.
The zone of Chinese exercises will be within 20 kilometres of Taiwan's shoreline at some points, according to coordinates released by the Chinese military. Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February heightened fears in Taiwan that China may similarly follow through on its threats to annex the island.
Taiwan’s Verry good love Taiwan’s China no good

Commie China is in the Axis of evil with Russia, NK, Pakistan and Iran. Commie China’s behaviour is worse then the terrorists. All because of a simple and friendly visit to Taiwan.
