The speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, after visiting Taiwan, wrote a column for The Washington Post, where she noted that America will never give in to autocrats.
She emphasized that the US is committed to the development of a democratic Taiwan and supports relations based on common interests and values: self-determination and self-government, democracy and freedom, human dignity and human rights.
"Today, America must remember the commitment to ʼconsider any attempt to determine Taiwanʼs future by other than peaceful means.ʼ We must support Taiwan, an island of stability that is under threat," Pelosi wrote and recalled the terrible human rights situation on the island, where China is strengthening its power.
