For us, I just need to replace us up with
what's taking place we are just taking you
out of the screen for the time being Margaret
only for a moment because we have the
plane door open that is the aircraft
it truly is been wearing nancy Pelosi the
senior u.s.democrat
and it has touched down and those are
now getting off the aircraft it is quite
darkish as I said it is uh what sort of 10
to 11ish
at night there so we can see there are
pretty a few people getting off as you
can see so we are waiting to see if nancy
Pelosi uh herself gets off it might be a
a little bit problematic to identify her in the
darkish but this is the instant it appears
like this go to uh is commencing because
up until now, there were lots of
speculation about whether it'd
manifest whether or not it wouldn't show up it
did not appear on any reliable uh flight
schedule and in reality the schedule simply
so that you realize
is quite busy uh commenced in Singapore
this tour of uh Asia um it's flown
in reality now from the Malaysian capital
Kuala Lumpur crossing Borneo and the
Philippines flooding north along
taiwan's east coast is now on the
airport and we can kind of see a
delegation of officers it looks as if
approaching the side
of the aircraft there thrilling to peer
what reception might be given here
due to the fact virtually it is pretty overdue and one
might expect it will likely be
straight back to the uh lodge and sleep
however, there may be reliable engagements
already there can be this respectable
reception don't know who's therefrom
the
Taiwanese
side so we wait to look if
and whilst
it is going to be mild sufficient
to honestly see if we can crane this could
by nancy Pelosi on foot down the steps
right now
so Nancy Pelosi may be attending to the
the backside of the steps appears and being
met there you could see the flashbulbs of
cameras which could be beneficial for us to
attempt to see something however a huge moment
this
nancy Pelosi a democrat and
her very own president Biden a democrat
could as a substitute this visit wasn't going
beforehand at this time, there have been
others inside the administration and
inside the USA need to factor out for
stability who are actually saying this
go to must move ahead there were
similar visits inside the beyond at this level
nancy carefully of course is a member of
the legislature in the uh is, not a part of
the government is no longer part of the government
isn't always an official if you want uh
diplomatic experience in that experience
of the path the purpose it is sensitive
as we recognize is because the USA has
diplomatic ties with china
now not with Taiwan, it does have other
relations with Taiwan however it does now not
have respectable diplomatic family members with
Taiwan and that is the way that china
wants it and this is the manner that china
insists it ought to stay beneath its uh one
china coverage and that's why china has
been given those livid warnings uh
warning that Nancy Pelosi has to not
go to but it appears now
she has and he or she has touched down let's
get the reaction of professor Margaret
McMillan to that moment professor
well it permits wish it isn't always one of those
ancient moments in which all of us look lower back
and say oh that in reality become the start
of something um I desire I used to be questioning
you recognize of course she has a proper to head
to Taiwan, if she wishes I wish she'd completed
it and then we might hear approximately it I assume
the Chinese would possibly have reacted better i
suppose what we must ask ourselves now
is what's the Chinese government going
to do
and could it exchange their stance amongst
different matters on Ukraine um
The Chinese language has now not condemned the Russian
invasion of Ukraine however they have not
sold them guns um you recognize they
have not sincerely egged them on in Ukraine
they haven't shown wholehearted help
for them, I'm wondering if it will exchange i
think that I am sorry to jump in only
this is genuinely without a doubt thrilling due to the fact
I was going to ask you my next question
become right it befalls now what are the
options going through china they might pass for
complete-scale invasion
less than that though what are their
options you seem to be pointing properly one
of them in retaliation may be a change
of stance determine truly we're gonna
we are gonna help Russia we're not going
to guide Ukraine
I assume it is simply possible i
mean I assume they will protest
vociferously to the USA and i
suppose the united states said we will strive i
suppose to alter china however, it's it is
going to be hard due to the fact Taiwan has
been such a problem and the modern-day
chief in china Xi Jinping has made it
such trouble the other component of the route
is he has this massive party congress coming
up within the fall in which he's looking forward to
be anointed as basic president for
life and might he manage to pay for no longer to not to
look tough approximately this
exciting and on nancy Pelosi what do
you suspect is her motivation right here for
doing this
properly I've been asking myself that um
always been um you recognize very very
crucial of china on its file on human
rights I suggest the democrats have you ever
know usually supported human rights and
so I assume she probable feels um that
she has each proper to move and show
help for democracy in Asia and the
different possibility and I'm only
speculating right here is that she
is probably accomplishing the level when
people are starting to marvel whilst
she will retire um and I can not
recollect what her age is but she is i
suppose pretty antique I am to be continuing
this very excessive profile functions as
speaker of the residence and it can nicely be
that she wants to
show that she is a statesman in the world
order through going on one of these tours however in reality
I do not that the timing of this tour i
think it could be very unfortunate and allow's
fast touch at the significance of
Taiwan because it's miles a highly small
island off the coast of china however the us
hobby there is not simply military and
strategic and ancient it is it's
economic too
nicely Taiwan is one the exceptional
manufacturers of microchip um and china are
is of course and one of the matters
it really is been slowing down western
economic um boom lately has been the
difficulty in getting microchips each person
who's trying to shop for a brand new vehicle could be
privy to that or quite a few consumers
equipment and so I think Taiwan may be very
vital
inside the delivery chain for excessive-tech and
it's also I suppose essential as an image
of Yankee willpower to remain a
pacific electricity and if the Americans again
down over Taiwan what does that say to
the Japanese what does that say to the
Vietnamese what does that say to the
South Koreans um so Taiwan represents
more than just
a small island or smallish island
and what do you think we are going to
hear now from
the USA
because we've heard those uh warnings
from china now the traffic occurred we
wait to look the response from china
whether or not that's in words or in moves
but then we can necessarily be asking uh
the white house and government in in
the USA and what will be their reaction
now
I assume the American administration is
in a completely hard function I mean can
they have enough money to disown the speaker their
speaker of the residence of representatives
and a person who has been in politics
a totally long term and is
broadly seen as as a leading democrat um
you know for them now to sentence her for
doing this I suppose he is very difficult
certainly and so I assume what they are going
to must try to do is display aid
for certainly one of their personal without alienating
or infuriating the Chinese anymore and
that may be a very tough route to
tread certainly.
