United States House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi discussed a possible trade deal with Taiwan, which may soon be concluded, said the speaker on Wednesday, addressing a joint press conference with Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-Wen.

The two officials discussed the bilateral relationship between Washington and Taipei.

"There 3 important parts--security, governance, and economy. On security, our relationship is strong, and we discussed how to make it stronger. On the economy, we discussed a trade agreement that may be possible soon, and in governance, I would salute Taiwan on its leadership in tackling COVID, a real model for the world," stated Pelosi.
