US House Speaker Pelosi to visit Asia, including Singapore, no mention of Taiwan
US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will visit 4 Asian economies from Sunday (Jul 31), her office said, without mentioning Taiwan amid intense speculation she might visit the self-ruled island claimed by China.
“Speaker Nancy Pelosi is leading a Congressional delegation to the Indo-Pacific region, including visits to Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea and Japan,” her office said in a press release.
“The trip will focus on mutual security, economic partnership and democratic governance in the Indo-Pacific region.” REUTERS
