House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and a Democratic congressional delegation landed in Taiwan on Tuesday, following through with a visit that brought condemnation and threats from China and could sever already strained relations between Washington and Beijing.
Upon the arrival of Pelosi (D-Calif.) in Taipei around 10:45 p.m. local time, she became the highest-ranking US elected official to travel to the island nation since then-House Speaker Newt Gingrich in 1997.
Pelosi was seen exiting the plane — known as SPAR19 — wearing a pink suit and black face mask. Shortly after, she and the delegation appeared to pose for a photo with officials on the tarmac.
