On the approach of her country's foreign policy towards Taiwan, known as "strategic ambiguity", which is based on diplomatic recognition of the Chinese mainland and at the same time providing Taiwan with arms and support It is quiet and that it will hold high-level meetings in Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea and Japan without mentioning Taiwan.

In conjunction with the US administration’s warning to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, who has a long history of hostility to China, against her visit to Taiwan and China’s threat to the army, and that it will not stand idly by if she makes such a visit, most political analysts expected the repercussions to be dire, especially after the warning of Chinese President Xi Jinping. US Secretary of State Joe Biden in a phone conversation from "not playing with fire" on Taiwan.

What political analysts said was confirmed by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian, saying: "If the United States goes ahead with the visit to Taiwan, the American side will bear all the consequences of that, as Beijing considers Taiwan an inseparable part of China and the visit will have a serious political impact." .

“The consequences of this visit could be terrible.” With these words, the Chinese newspaper, Global Times, warned of the expected results of the visit, not only for bilateral relations between China and the United States, but for the entire region, noting that the Chinese authorities would be ready to respond to this move.

The newspaper considered that if Pelosi went ahead with her plans to visit Taiwan, this would be a severe blow to the administration of US President Joe Biden, which will have to face unprecedented and unlikely political and diplomatic consequences amid a significant decline in its credibility.

On the military maneuver with live ammunition that China conducted the day before yesterday in the Taiwan Strait, the former editor of the Chinese Global Times newspaper, Hu Shigen, said in his tweet today, “If Pelosi dares to stop in Taiwan, this will ignite the powder keg in the Taiwan Strait.”

Yong Ping, director of the Taiwan Studies Institute of Tsing Hua University in Beijing, went further in his expectations about the Chinese response to the visit, if it took place, as he saw that the response would not be limited to the military aspect only, but would be comprehensive on the military, diplomatic, economic and social levels.

In turn, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova described Pelosi's scheduled tour to a number of Asian countries as a "dangerous military and political adventure, and it is a journey between dream and reality," describing what is happening in US policy as inappropriate and surreal, in reference to the possibility of Pelosi's visit to Taiwan despite China's warnings. .

That visit apparently put the Biden administration between a rock and a hard place, as Robert Satter, an expert on China at George Washington University, explained that the Biden administration faces a real problem because if it backs down and tries to dissuade Pelosi from the visit, it will appear weak as if it succumbed to Chinese pressure tactics.

Everyone is awaiting the Chinese reaction at the expected visit, amid questions about the possibility of Yablosi, if she insists on visiting Taiwan, to ignite the fuse of war she is carrying in her travel bag.
