Former President Donald Trump denounced House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for potentially going to Taiwan during her current tour in Asia. She plans to visit Japan, South Korea, Malaysia and Singapore, but is still considering a visit to Taiwan, which has been clearly identified by China as a severe breach of Chinese sovereignty and counter to U.S. agreements to honor the “One China” policy. President Xi Jinping told President Biden in their phone call July 28 that “Those who play with fire will perish by it.”
Trump wrote on his Telegram account on July 29: “Everything she touches turns to Chaos, Disruption and Crap …, and the China mess is the last thing she should be involved in — She will only make it worse. Crazy Nancy just inserts herself and causes great friction and hatred.”
