White House Summons Chinese Ambassador Over Taiwan Response - Tasnim News Agency

 The White House summoned China’s ambassador on Thursday to condemn Beijing’s response over Pelosi’s visit to the Chinese Island, reiterating that the United States does not want a crisis in the region.

“After China’s actions overnight, we summoned [People’s Republic of China] Ambassador Qin Gang to the White House to démarche him about the PRC’s provocative actions,” White House spokesman John Kirby said in a statement provided to The Washington Post.

“We condemned the PRC’s military actions, which are irresponsible and at odds with our long-standing goal of maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.” A démarche is a protest lodged through diplomatic channels.
