US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan triggered China’s military drills to encircle Taiwan and attracted global attention. Taiwan’s diplomats in various countries also tried to explain Taiwan’s situation to the local media. Yao Jinxiang, the representative to Sweden, bluntly said in an interview with a local Swedish news program that many people are arguing “Is it wrong for Pelosi to visit Taiwan?” This means that the CCP’s “creative narrative succeeded”, and the interview content was translated on Taiwanese YouTube and shared with Taiwanese fans.
YouTuber Lukas Engström from Sweden shared a clip of Yao Jinxiang’s recent interview with the well-known Swedish nightly news program “Aktuellt” on Facebook on the 9th. In the video, the host asked Yao Jinxiang: “Is it wrong for Pelosi to visit Taiwan? Yao Jinxiang replied decisively, “Of course not”, and stated that this was completely China’s unilateral provocation and intimidation of the Pelosi delegation.
The host asked, if Pelosi hadn’t visited Taiwan, would the military exercises that China has held around Taiwan for the past few days also wouldn’t have happened? Yao Jinxiang said: “Many people are also arguing about this, but if she doesn’t come, it means that the Chinese Communist Party’s creative narrative has succeeded, and other countries will accept China’s argument that Taiwan belongs to China, which also means that Taiwan’s democracy and freedom will not be respected by other countries.”
According to Reuters, Pelosi defended her visit to Taiwan on the 9th, emphasizing that the trip was “absolutely” worthwhile, and argued that the United States cannot allow China to isolate Taiwan. “We cannot allow the Chinese government to isolate Taiwan. They cannot decide who can go to Taiwan,” Pelosi said in an interview on NBC’s “Today” program.
