Chinese Foreign Ministry reaffirms Beijing's determination to respond harshly if Pelosi visits Taiwan

“We pay close attention to the Pelosi route, and if the United States acts without regard for the opinions of others, China will certainly take decisive and tough measures to protect sovereignty and security interests,” RIA Novosti quoted the diplomat as saying.

Earlier, Chinese Ambassador to the UN Zhang Jun said that a possible visit by Pelosi to Taiwan would undermine relations between China and the United States.
