Tensions between China and the US

The visit, which will last until Monday, according to the American Institute of Taiwancomes a few days after the main maneuvers ever carried out by China around the island.

The maneuvers were a response to visiting Taiwan Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi. Taiwan accuses China of using Pelosi’s visit as an excuse to prepare for an invasion.

In response, the United States reaffirmed its commitment to the region, stating that it will strengthen its trade relations with Taiwan and has indicated that it will make new air and sea crossings across the strait in response to China’s “provocative” actions, Kurt Campbell, the White House Asia-Pacific coordinator, said Friday.

China believes that Taiwanwith a population of about 23 million, is one of its provinces that has not yet been able to reunite with the rest of the territory since the end of the Chinese Civil War in 1949.
