China's threats were proven to be "made in China".đ
-
The US Government is proving a point here. How will the CCP will react is the real question.
-
As a Taiwanese, thank you! It's a warm gesture to us.
-
As a Californian Iâm not a fan of hers but I did pray for her safe return. Iâm actually proud she went over there and did that.
-
I'm surprised she flew on a U.S. Government plane. And not a private one. Bold statement to China.
-
Definition of "China's final warning": a warning in which the threat does not mean anything and should not be perceived as an actual threat
-
*China screeching US: must've been the wind. This shows that US will not be intimidated over a 1 day visit.

I am searching the BBC NEWS IN ENGLISH LIVE BUT COULD NOT FOUND KINDLY HELP ME

Good! Iâm not a fan of Pelosi but Iâm glad she didnât back down đȘ

When you trolled someone..... But you get trolled instead... Moral life lesson
-
We proud of Proud USA and Taiwan.
-
Unfortunate that they have such an evil neighbour. Even if they successfully repelled an invasion, they can't go anywhere.
-
What did China expect the U.S. to do after making a statement like that.
-
If the Chinese truly had any problem with this trip they should have made their reservations in private but publicly stating a high ranking US official cannot visit a country is reason for that official to do exactly that so they are not seen as a pushover for China.

Iâm not a fan of Speaker Pelosi but kudos to the speaker for taking this trip
-
They purposely didn't put some lights. This shows you how sensitive the situation is.
-
A strong, secure nation does not get triggered by something like this.
-
Love or hate her, she's fearless!
-
This lady has nothing to interfere like that in such a complicated situation! The world already has enough problems without her having to intensify the differences between China and the USA in a trip advised against even by Biden!

This was the biggest middle finger ever given to China. Kudos to Pelosi and the USA
