So we want to advance security, economy, and governance in an interparliamentary way,&#8221; Pelosi said at a meeting with South Korean leaders on Wednesday. <\/p>\n<p>The trip to North Korea wasn\u2019t included on Pelosi\u2019s itinerary released over the weekend detailing where the House speaker would visit during her weeklong trip. However, the California Democrat has made other last-minute changes to her schedule, visiting Taiwan on Tuesday despite warnings from China and U.S. government officials. <\/p>\n<p>Pelosi\u2019s visit to Taiwan prompted backlash from Chinese officials, who consider the island to be part of their territory despite Taiwan considering itself a self-governed nation. Shortly after the House speaker landed in Taiwan, the Chinese military announced it would be initiating military drills, the largest flex of China\u2019s considerable military muscle in more than two decades. <\/p>\n<p>While in South Korea, Pelosi met with National Assembly Speaker Kim Jin-pyo and other members of parliament to discuss regional security and economic partnerships. She is also expected to speak with South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol on the phone during her visit. <\/p>\n<p>South Korea will be Pelosi\u2019s fourth stop on the trip before she leaves for Japan on Thursday, her final stop of the tour, according to her itinerary. <\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/b> <\/p>\n<p>Pelosi is leading a congressional delegation that includes Rep.
