Re: [Salon] Chinese Foreign Ministry Statement on Pelosi Visit to Taiwan



From the same group that sent the YT video to me, another person stated shortly thereafter:

"WION is a false news agency to my viewing, and one that could easily be a cia one.
"Not one to encourage our group to use, I suggest.

"And the footage of PLA of China shooting in planes implies an attack and is a lie and  is super hype false news, Michael.
They were restrained to everyone's relief.”


I hesitated to send it when it was from an unknown source but it is also significant in my opinion that even if this is false, its being produced for a purpose. Perhaps as “conditioning the battlefield,” in Rand’s terms of a couple decades ago. Or perhaps not. Regardless, the production of such inflammatory material does not forbode an improvement or lessening of tension in the situation we’re in now.

This was just shared to me: 

Nancy Pelosi has arrived in Taiwan. China is responding with "targeted military operations" around the Island. Taiwan is preparing for a potential conflict.

Here is the full text of the statement by the Chinese Foreign Ministry.  It appears Pelosi's visit already occurred.
