Kind of needs a thread ..........
CNN
—
China’s Foreign Ministry announced new countermeasures against Washington on Friday, including the suspension of climate talks, in response to Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, hours after it announced sanctions against the US House speaker.
The measures include the cancellation of future phone calls and meetings between Chinese and US defense leaders, for which future dates had not been announced, and the cancellation of annual naval meetings under the China-US military maritime consultation mechanism.
It suspended its anti-drug cooperation with the US, which has already been strained in recent years. The US has blamed China for failing to stop synthetic opioids reaching the US as both Beijing and Washington disagree on how to counteract the problem.
China’s Foreign Ministry also said it would suspend climate change talks, a major area of cooperation despite escalating tensions in recent years.

Really scary how much force China is showing over a simple visit. Have no idea if this could happen with China being so locked into the global economy (although does that inoculate them?) but I hope they don't make a move on Taiwan.

Who the fuck asked Nancy Pelosi to go to Taiwan? This is such an obvious self-inflicted wound.

The absolute balls on this woman. Trying to check in on her insider trading scheme and poking the bear as cover. She knows China wasn’t gonna do shit except talk about how angry they were and sanction her personally. I agree with Mike. Who the fuck asked her to go to Taiwan and issue statements about Taiwan’s status that are contrary to what the official stance of the president and America is? It made no strategic sense for her to visit but hey she owns millions of dollars worth of chip stocks and needs to check on her investment. Stupid and crooked thing to do but again, I must emphasize, the absolute balls on this woman lmao

Was this a stunt to make the dems appear hard on China with Taiwan being the pawn?

If this was a movie, this would totally be a trap tbh 
President Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping are planning their first in-person meeting since Biden took office in Southeast Asia come November, the Wall Street Journal first reported Friday.
The trip will be Xi’s first foreign trip in three years and comes as tension between Washington and Beijing mounts following increased Chinese aggression toward Taiwan.www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-xi-jinping-plan-first-person-meet-amid-rocky-relations |
