Nancy Pelosi made headlines on the 2nd of August 2022 following her symbolic, yet controversial visit to Taiwan. The 82-year-old Pelosi, who serves as the 52nd Speaker of the United States House of Representatives made a risky journey to the Asian country of Taiwan, which is on a brink of invasion by the Chinese government. The Chinese government have since been making advancements to the smaller country in the name of military exercises along its shores, but the leader of the former believes otherwise.
Nancy Pelosi’s visit was supposed to be reassuring to the people of Taiwan that they are supported, but China isn’t happy with the interference of the U.S. China has threatened the U.S to stay away from their dealings with Taiwan. This wouldn’t be the first invasion if it does happen, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is still ongoing.
