Beijing: The fear is increasing that the world may have to face another big war. The tension between the US and China on the issue of Taiwan has now reached a point where the clouds of war can hover at any time. China made a clear threat to the US on Monday that if the Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi visits Taiwan, then its army will not remain silent.
According to the news agency Reuters news, this latest warning was issued during the regular press briefing of the Chinese Foreign Ministry. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian also said that Nancy Pelosi’s position is “number three in the US government” and that Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan would have serious political implications. Significantly, China lays claim to Taiwan and has been looking for an opportunity to capture it for a long time.
Nancy Pelosi is starting her tour of four Asian countries from Singapore on Monday. There is speculation that she will also visit Taiwan. Even if Beijing makes as many threats about it. Earlier, US President Joe Biden had also warned China not to make the mistake of underestimating America’s commitment to Taiwan.
While Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has urged US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to make efforts for stable relations with China. Singapore’s Foreign Ministry says PM Lee stressed the importance of stable relations between the US and China for regional peace and security.
