The U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations unanimously passed the TAIPEI Act on Sept. 25, moving forward a bill that would bolster Taiwan’s ability to fend off China’s diplomatic bullying.
The bill, short for the Taiwan Allies International Protection and Enhancement Initiative (TAIPEI) Act ( S.1678), would require the U.S. government to engage with countries around the world to support Taiwan’s diplomatic recognition and strengthen unofficial ties with the island.
