China declared Friday it was stopping all dialogue with the United States on major issues, from climate change to military relations, in a day of rapidly escalating tensions over House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan. The White House summoned China's ambassador to protest what it called China's “irresponsible” actions since the visit.

China's military exercises off Taiwan in reaction to Pelosi's visit earlier this week were of “concern to Taiwan, to us, and to our partners around the world,” spokesman John Kirby said in a statement after Thursday's formal diplomatic rebuke to Ambassador Qin Gang at the White House.

Cooperation on returning illegal immigrants, criminal investigations, transnational crime, illegal drugs and climate change will be suspended, the ministry said. “Finally, we made clear once again as we have done privately at the highest levels and publicly: Nothing has changed about our one-China policy. We also made clear that the United States is prepared for what Beijing chooses to do.”

The official Xinhua News Agency said Friday that fighters, bombers, destroyers and frigates were all used in what it called “joint blockage operations.” Dialogue and exchanges between China and the U.S., particularly on military matters and economic exchanges, have generally been halting at best. Climate change and fighting trade in illegal drugs such as fentanyl were, however, areas where they had found common cause. Beijing's suspension of cooperation could have significant implications for efforts to achieve progress in those issues.

Fighter jets could be heard flying overhead and tourists taking photos chanted, “Let's take Taiwan back,” looking out into the blue waters of the Taiwan Strait from Pingtan island, a popular scenic spot in Fujian province. Taiwan residents overwhelmingly favor maintaining the status quo of de facto independence and reject China's demands that the island unify with the mainland under Communist control.

China and Russia along with their underdog allies (North Korea and Iran) are the cancerous tumours of this planet. One day they’ll be gone

Ban all exports to the US, lets see what happens.

No, I wont be going to fight for this. I'll burn your draft letter with pleasure

Democrats starting another war.

The American attitude of provocation of China, and before that, of Russia, is hard to fathom. This is no time for forcing some kind of a showdown: the climate crisis is what all need to deal with.

So called Chinese military ops near taiwan. I am not sure what kind of blockade it was which didn’t interrupt air or sea movement to the island. Maybe it was low Chinese quality version of a blockade.

I don’t think China has any intention of ever save the climate. The jokes on us as we destroy our economy and become dependent on unreliable sources. Canada is so naive

Bunch of babies

Love the people who think everyone should bow down to China no matter what crimes they commit for fear of making them mad.

China wasn’t doing any climate stuff anyway lol.

Wow how adult of them typical bullies taking tantrums when things don’t go their way.
