BEIJING, March 29 – RIA Novosti. If Taiwan’s Chief of Staff Tsai Ing-wen meets with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on her “transit trip” through the United States, it will seriously undermine the sovereignty of China, Beijing will then take the necessary steps to resolutely retaliate, a Chinese official said. The State Council Affairs Office said Taiwan Zhu Fenglian on Wednesday. Earlier in March, the island’s chief executive’s office announced that Tsai Ing-wen would lead a Taiwanese delegation on March 29 to Guatemala and Belize via the United States. The tour of Taiwan-friendly Central American countries will last 10 days. The delegation will leave Taiwan on March 29, transit through New York and arrive in Guatemala on April 1, then – on April 3 – the delegation will arrive in Belize, on the way back on April 5 will transit through Los Angeles and return to the island April 7. “Taiwanese authorities are constantly making excuses, taking every opportunity to pursue their ‘independence’ interests. The Taiwanese leader’s so-called ‘transit trip’ is essentially an act of provocation, seeking US assistance to achieve ‘independence’, Zhu said According to Zhu Fenglian, Tsai Ing-wen’s ‘transit’ will not be an honest stop at the airport or hotel, she is looking for excuses to communicate with various US officials , members of Congress, “to come to terms with anti-Chinese forces” The situation around Taiwan worsened considerably after the visit to the island in early August last year, then president of U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi China, which considers the island one of its provinces, condemned Pelosi’s visit, seeing it as displacing U.S. support for Taiwanese separatism and holding military exercises in large scale . begging to renounce the use of military force if the need arises. Official relations between the PRC’s central government and its island province were severed in 1949, when Kuomintang forces led by Chiang Kai-shek, defeated in a civil war with the Chinese Communist Party, moved to Taiwan. Commercial and informal contacts between the island and mainland China resumed in the late 1980s. Since the early 1990s, the parties began to contact each other through non-governmental organizations – the Association of Beijing for the Development of Relations across the Taiwan Strait and the Taipei Foundation for Cross-Strait Exchanges.
