US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi met top South Korean political leaders on Thursday, a day after she concluded her high-profile visit to Taiwan by renewing Washington's "ironclad" commitment to defending democracy on the self-governing island despite vehement protests from China. Regional tensions are rising following Pelosi's Taiwan trip, with China preparing to launch its largest military maneuvers aimed at Taiwan.
