(Seoul = Yonhap News) “The US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan hampered the Joe Biden administration’s strategy to contain China and gain support from Asian countries.”
This was reported by Bloomberg News on the 9th (local time).
Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan showed the US’ “strong and unshakable” willingness to support, but concerns over the US-China conflict have left Asian countries at a loss.
In fact, right after Chairman Pelosi arrived in Taiwan on the night of the 2nd, China entered Taiwan’s containment military exercise and fired ballistic missiles passing over Taiwan, while mobilizing aircraft and warships to neutralize the middle line of the Taiwan Strait.
In response to China’s military exercises, Japan and Australia held a trilateral foreign ministers meeting with the United States during the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) last week and condemned China’s military exercises.
ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) said in a statement that it supports the ‘one China’ policy, and India, a member of the Quad (a security consultative body of the United States, Japan, Australia, and India) aimed at keeping China in check, has been silent all the time. kept the
South Korea’s President Yun Seok-yeol also avoided meeting with Pelosi on the grounds of a vacation, which was interpreted as a move conscious of Foreign Minister Park Jin’s planned visit to China.
On the other hand, Europe is not concerned about the possibility of backlash from China.
The Taiwan Free Times reported on the 10th that, following Chairman Pelosi, visits to Taiwan by German, British and European parliamentarians are expected to follow within the year.
