Given the tensions, Germany has said that in the face of a possible conflict it would support Taiwan, this if China decides to attack.
China warned on Tuesday that the United States would bear the “responsibility” and “pay the price” if US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan on her Asian tour.
“The United States will bear the responsibility and pay the price for undermining China’s sovereignty and security,” a spokeswoman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, Hua Chunying, told reporters.
