China sanctions Nancy Pelosi
China prepares to impose sanctions on US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her immediate family members.
China has taken this decision amid China’s strong opposition to Nancy Pelosi’s recent visit to Taiwan. Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan while on an Asian tour.
According to the US government, it was her personal visit. However, Pelosi accompanied an American delegation to Taiwan. She not only met the President of Taiwan, but also addressed the Taiwanese Parliament.
With Pelosi’s visit, China began a massive military exercise to threaten Taiwan, and imposed sanctions on Taiwan. China also threatened the US not to interfere in unnecessary issues.
