China’s military response to Taiwan President’s meeting with US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is a lot different from last year when Nancy Pelosi visited Taipei.
Nine Chinese aircraft crossed the Taiwan Strait Friday carrying out drills, the defence ministry said. President Tsai Ing-wen arrived in the US Wednesday & is to meet the House Speaker in LA.
Tsai is due to depart on Wednesday for Guatemala and Belize that will see her transit through NY and LA. Not officially confirmed, she is likely to meet McCarthy in California.
