Media reports have said that there was a possibility that Pelosi would visit Taiwan, which drew heavy criticism from Beijing. The Chinese People's Liberation Army started military drills with a firing exercise on Saturday in the southeastern province of Fujian across the strait from Taiwan.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry said that in the event of Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, Beijing will take decisive measures to protect its sovereignty and territorial integrity, and the US will be fully responsible for all the consequences resulting from the visit.
