China has warned Taiwan’s President against meeting senior American officials as she heads to the United States.
President Tsai Ing-wen says she won’t bow to “external pressure” as she embarked on what could be a historic visit. She will reportedly meet with US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, although the meeting has not been officially confirmed. Tsai is also travelling to Guatemala and Belize, stopping in New York on Wednesday and Los Angeles on her return.
While Tsai Ing-wen has transited through the United States numerous times since 2016, this would be the first meeting between a house speaker and Taiwan’s president on US soil.
