South East European stocks ended Tuesday’s session mostly in the red territory as investors observed the visit made today by United States House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan despite China’s warnings not to do so. Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said that Pelosi’s visit would lead to “very serious developments and consequences”. The White House has warned China against turning her visit into a crisis. The tensions could shake markets worldwide, with China announcing military exercises encircling Taiwan later this week.
