Pelosi has reached the first point of her Asian tour - she arrived in Singapore.

The next route is Malaysia, South Korea and Japan. About Taiwan, as before, not a word.

Now the world's media is guessing:

▪️ Pelosi will cancel a visit to Taiwan at the last minute
▪️ Pelosi's board will land on the island due to a "breakdown" or for refueling

The first option will hit the speaker's reputation. The second, as in the joke: even with a carcass, even with a stuffed animal.

🇨🇳🇺🇸Nancy Pelosi will still visit Taiwan — Media.

The plane of the Speaker of the US House of Representatives will land in Taipei on August 2, the Taiwanese China Times reports.

Already on August 3, she can meet with the head of the island's administration.

Relations between Beijing and Washington have worsened amid a possible visit by Pelosi to Taiwan.

China promises to "resolutely defend national interests," and its army conducts military exercises.

Beijing demanded that Washington cancel the visit of the Speaker of the US House of Representatives to the island.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping, in a conversation with Biden, said that "and graya with fire, you can set yourself on fire."

🇺🇲🇷🇺🇺🇦 American economist Jeffrey Sachs: "Ukraine will disappear from the map, or a third world war will begin"

Among the well-known Americans who disagree with the official White House version of events in Ukraine, a serious addition: the economist Jeffrey Sachs has warned that the conflict in Ukraine will not end with the defeat of Vladimir Putin. “Ukraine will disappear from the map, or the third world war will begin,” he gave a forecast of the development of events during the Free Thoughts on the Future conference.

It is noteworthy that Sacks blames the West for starting the current conflict, saying that there is only one option to end hostilities - NATO must admit that it will not expand at the expense of Ukraine. The arrogance of the Western military alliance, which refused to take into account the demands of Russia to ensure its security, is the reason for the outbreak of hostilities in the center of Europe. And if the West really wants peace, Sachs believes, it needs to end the war against Russia, not on NATO terms, but with Moscow's interests in mind.

🇺🇸🤝🇹🇼❗️ — 🇺🇸 CNN (August 1, 2022): Pelosi expected to visit Taiwan, Taiwanese and US officials say
— "US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to visit Taiwan as part of her tour of Asia, according to a senior Taiwanese government official and a US official, despite warnings from Biden administration officials, who are worried about China's response to such a high-profile visit.

The stop -- the first for a US House speaker in 25 years -- is not currently on Pelosi's public itinerary and comes at a time when US-China relations are already at a low point.

The Taiwanese official added that she is expected to stay in Taiwan overnight. It is unclear when exactly Pelosi will land in Taipei."

🇺🇸🇹🇼❌🇨🇳 — 🇯🇵 Nikkei Asia: U.S. deploys ships and planes near Taiwan as Pelosi eyes visit
— "The U.S. military is moving assets, including aircraft carriers and large planes, closer to Taiwan ahead of an anticipated but unconfirmed visit to the island by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

The military was initially opposed to the speaker's visit but now looks to be creating a buffer zone for Pelosi's plane, in the case that she decides to go ahead with the controversial stop.

But with China threatening to take "actions" to counter the visit, tensions in East Asia have quickly escalated, perhaps against the will of both U.S. President Joe Biden, who was seeking to remove some tariffs on Chinese goods to counter inflation, and Chinese President Xi Jinping, who faces a sensitive political season at home with his rule extension on the line."
