US delegation arrived for talks with Tsai Ing-wen, less than two weeks after US House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taipei
United States lawmakers were set to meet Taiwan’s president days after China reacted to a similar visit by the US House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, with huge military drills that raised fears of conflict.
The unannounced two-day trip came after Beijing sent warships, missiles and jets into the waters and skies around Taiwan, a self-ruled democracy that China’s leaders claim and have vowed to one day seize.
