US policy researchers and Japanese lawmakers are the latest visiting delegations, just weeks after China reacted to US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan by holding large-scale military exercises that included firing missiles over the island and sending ships across the midline of the Taiwan Strait.
