China Warns Speaker McCarthy Against Visiting Taiwan

McCarthy, Speaker, plans to visit Taiwan this spring. The Chinese government is not pleased about this. China’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning is delivering a message to McCarthy – don’t come.

China doesn’t want McCarthy Follow Pelosi To show support for Taiwan through a visit, it might violate the U.S. long-standing policy of the one-China strategy. Don’t violate basic norms, Mr. Speaker.

“We urge certain individuals in the U.S. to earnestly abide by the one-China principle,” China’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said in a Monday briefing, adding that the U.S. should “stop doing anything that violates the basic norms in international relations.”

Mao was questioned during that briefing about a report last Wednesday that McCarthy was planning to visit Taiwan. McCarthy stated that he would travel to Taiwan if elected Speaker of House. McCarthy supported Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan last August.

Mao said that China would be a good partner. “never promise to give up the use of force” To unify Taiwan and China. She also stated that the Chinese government wanted to end the conflict peacefully. They will re-create the same tantrum that Pelosi experienced when she visited. China threatened Taiwan and held live-fire military drills in close proximity to Taiwan to use intimidation against the United States. China accused America of using “dirty tricks” Pelosi made the trip. This was the first House speaker’s trip to Taiwan in 25-years.

Pelosi made a bold decision at the time. Many lawmakers opposed her trip to Taiwan, which could have created tension between the U.S.A and China. I think that this criticism was misguided. It didn’t matter if Pelosi stopped in Taiwan during a trip overseas or not. There is already tension in the United States and China. China is making noises aggressively toward Taiwan, emboldened by Biden’s perceived weakness in world affairs. Ever since the administration’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, Biden has been seen as a weak leader. The Chinese leadership sure doesn’t respect or fear Sleepy Joe. Pelosi didn’t back down when China threatened her, even though the White House initially opposed her decision.

China The U.S. was frozen out in retaliation. China suspended talks with the United States on a variety of issues including climate change, military relations and antidrug efforts. Yet, Pelosi’s commitment to the stop in Taiwan spurred on Other legislators Public officials To take their trips to Taiwan. That was the right answer. Public officials and legislators should not travel to Taiwan without permission. The United States recognizes the PRC as the legal government of China and acknowledges Beijing’s claim that Taiwan is a part of China without endorsing that fact. This is the One China policy. Nothing has changed.

The White House’s confused and dazed man, not Pelosi or other travelers to Taiwan, complicated matters with the One China Policy. Biden, who, according to our sources, was an expert in foreign policies, answered reporters when he was asked. Things went wrong By saying that the U.S. would protect Taiwan if China attacked. Joe Biden has never been an expert in foreign policies. It was his own narrative. His ego is bigger than his brain.

The Pentagon Planning to ensure McCarthy’s safety on the trip. It’s good that McCarthy is making good on his plan to visit Taiwan. Is the bipartisan delegation that he will take with him?
