At the regular press conference of , the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs on August 1, a reporter asked: "You mentioned that 'the Chinese army will never sit idly by'. Can you explain in detail what this refers to? What might happen if Pelosi visited Taiwan?" In response, Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said that Pelosi's identity determines that her visit to Taiwan must be highly sensitive. No matter when or how she goes to Taiwan, she will seriously violate the one-China principle and the three joint communiqués of the China-US government, seriously undermine China-US relations, and will inevitably cause bad political impact. If Speaker Pelosi visits Taiwan, China will surely take firm responses and strong countermeasures to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity. As for what measures are, if she dares to go, let's wait and see.
