*taps screen* History reminder about the Second Assurance in the Six Assurances #taiwan
Jason Li retweeted
Republicans and Democrats on the Select Committee on China have worked together to lead legislation supporting Taiwan’s meaningful participation in the international community and pushing back against CCP coercion.
Supporting Taiwan transcends party lines, and together this Select Committee has unified leadership, and delivered bipartisan solutions and real results.

Sharing this piece by Shelley Rigger examining "The Six Assurances to Taiwan Act.” She notes if the past 50 years of U.S.-Taiwan-PRC relations have taught us anything, it is that a good policy, consistently applied, can keep crisis and conflict at bay. brookings.edu/articles/the-s…

The CCP’s use of Resolution 2758 to claim sovereignty over Taiwan is inaccurate and dangerous. We must stand with the people of Taiwan and their democracy.

POLITICO: As USAID retreats, China pounces —
• In Nepal, Beijing is signaling it's willing to step in to replace the void
• In the Cook Islands, warnings that the vacuum will give an opening for China
• In Colombia, China is already interested in filling the NGO gap
We need 🇺🇸 USAID to compete with 🇨🇳. "At a time when the CCP is aggressively investing abroad, rerouting supply chains, and buying authoritarian favor, the United States must double down on USAID's work, not stifle it." newsweek.com/we-need-usaid-c…

"China’s policy toward the Ukraine war has threaded the needle of avoiding outward criticism of Russia’s actions while chastising the U.S. as China’s strategic rival." More from @jasli42 on how has China's relationship with Russia changed amid the war.

Ahead of #China's #20thPartyCongress, we speak with @YCW_Global Ann Listerud @lianlist of Strider Intelligence and Jason Li @jasli42 of @Stimson_EAsia @StimsonCenter on the challenges the nation faces #CCP #XiJinping #XJP #Taiwan youtu.be/tYkMkISDzNI
No groundbreaking change here. China's goal since the 14th FYP has been to ensure the goal of the PLA's 100th anniversary (确保2027年实现建军百年奋斗目标). In China's mind, this always included the ability to (or at least boast the ability to) force Taiwan's "return" (回归)

Guide to PLA Eastern Command's planned exercises encircling Taiwan, August 4 to 7. As @nrg8000 @CIGeography @fravel note, the areas encompass Taiwan's territorial AND internal waters. Unlike in 95/ 96, they also notably include manned trainings in non-Chinese waters. #Pelosi
