South Korea calls for calm over Pelosi Taiwan visit

Pelosi is also due to visit South Korea as part of her Asian tour, which has so far been dominated by her dramatic late-night arrival in Taipei Tuesday, enraging Beijing.

She is the highest-profile elected US official to visit Taiwan in 25 years, and China has made clear that it regards her presence as a major provocation, launching increasingly stark warnings and threats. Beijing considers self-ruled, democratic Taiwan as its territory and has vowed to one day take the island, by force if necessary.

South Korea's presidential office called for regional peace and stability through dialogue ahead of Pelosi's expected arrival in Seoul late Wednesday. "Our government's stance is to maintain close communication with relevant parties ... on the basis that peace and stability in the region through dialogue and cooperation are important," an official from the presidential office told reporters.

No. I can't stop laughing at China 🇨🇳. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yes, we calmly visited a friend. China does not have the word calm in their vocabulary. That is not our problem.

跟韩国有个鸡的关系，不也是美国养的狗

Glad China stayed calm , for other leaders , it could've easily triggered into a war , other parts of the world cannot afford another war . US love wars , we dont .

USA forever acting as the policeman of the world Pity they did not address their GUN lobby at home to prevent needless innocent deaths.

Pelosi can't do her job for her own region in U.S. So why go to Taiwan To look like she has a job at midterm time. And get Money for her family future.

Wounder if kim will freak out when she visits there

Haha South Korea calls for calm, while America is stoking wars around the world! They fired 8 missiles at the northern part of Korea in June, caused instability and built up fringe terrorist groups in Syria and Afghanistan, built Bio-Labs and placed NATO at borders of Russia!
