China warns of "strong and resolute measures" if Pelosi visits Taiwan

• Pelosi was meant to visit Taiwan last August but was forced to postpone her trip after contracting COVID-19.

What they're saying: "The Chinese side has repeatedly stated its stern position on this. We firmly oppose any form of official interaction between the US and the Taiwan region," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said at a press briefing Tuesday.

• Pelosi's visit to Taiwan would "seriously violate" the "one China" policy, Zhao added.
• "Should the U.S. side insist on doing otherwise, China will take strong and resolute measures to safeguard its sovereignty and territorial integrity. The U.S. must assume full responsibility for any ensuing consequences."

The other side: "We do not confirm or deny international travel in advance due to longstanding security protocols," Drew Hammill, Pelosi's deputy chief of staff, told Axios.
