Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan on August 2, 2022, has been seen by mainland China as an explicit provocation and a move to embolden the self-ruled island’s independence-leaning government. The US House Speaker’s visit to Taiwan, which Beijing regards as a breakaway province, has plunged the relationship between Beijing and Washington to new depths and triggered the worst crisis the Taiwan Strait has seen in decades.
