U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi plans to visit Taiwan in August, arousing tensions between the U.S. and China. China issued a strong warning to the U.S., threatening to respond militarily. At the same time, U.S. President Biden showed weakness. signs. Biden said externally that the U.S. military believes that Pelosi's visit to Taiwan is "not a good idea right now", and the White House suggested that Pelosi's visit to Taiwan can be postponed. Obviously, the Biden administration is very concerned about China's response, and it is even caught in a dilemma. The dilemma has attracted considerable attention from the outside world. The change in the attitude of the United States may affect the development of the overall situation in the Taiwan Strait. China warns Pelosi to visit Taiwan, Biden worries about affecting the situation in the Taiwan Strait As early as April of this year, Pelosi had planned to come to Taiwan, but after the news of her diagnosis came out, the Asia trip was canceled. A t that time, it was said that Pelosi's trip was delayed. In other words, four months later, Pelosi will come to Taiwan in August. This decision was not sudden, but fulfilled her originally planned visit arrangement, which was postponed from April to August, Special Database which was fully in line with the US statement at the time. Of course, it is not surprising that China will strongly intimidate whether it is the planned visit to Taiwan in April or the possible visit to Taiwan in August. The crux of the issue is the attitude of the Biden administration. From the perspective of the constitutional principle of the separation of powers in the United States, the operation of Congress is not subject to interference from the executive branch. status, as are many democracies, so Pelosi, as the speaker of Congress, has no power in the Biden administration to limit her actions and decisions. This also explains that high-level congressional leaders from many countries have recently visited Taiwan, and even Bill Bill, the vice-president of the European Parliament, has also visited Taiwan a few days ago. However, there are two main reasons why the Biden administration will be so cautious about Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, even in a negative way. arrow_forward_iosunderstand more Powered by GliaStudio First of all, the current situation in the Taiwan Strait is still in an unstable state. China has always been quite opposed to Taiwan's internationalization. Naturally, it does not want Taiwan to have any official links with other countries, especially the deepening of Taiwan-US relations. Once the visit to Taiwan is successful, once it becomes a routine, indicating that there will be more room for breakthroughs in the future, it may force China to react strongly, especially to take military action.
