Russia accused the United States today of “destabilizing the world” by stoking tensions over Taiwan, where a potential visit by US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has angered Beijing.
“Washington is destabilizing the world. Not a single conflict has been resolved in recent decades, but many have been provoked,” Russian diplomatic spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on her Telegram account.
The remarks sound like a ‘return to sender’ for Moscow, which Western countries, led by the United States, accuse of destabilizing after its invasion of Ukraine.
Pelosi this week began a tour of several Asian countries that risks escalating tensions between China and the United States over a visit to Taiwan that has not been confirmed but is seen as increasingly likely.
Beijing considers Taiwan a part of its territory that must be reunified, by force if necessary, and has repeatedly warned Washington against a visit by the senior official, which it would consider too provocative.
Increasingly isolated on the international stage after its military intervention in Ukraine and suffering economically from Western sanctions, Russia is trying to reach out to China.
