The US House of Representatives has passed the Taiwan Conflict Deterrence Act, a bipartisan bill aimed at discouraging China from launching military action against Taiwan.
The legislation threatens to expose and potentially sanction the assets of Chinese Communist Party elites if China invades Taiwan. Lawmakers believe that targeting the personal wealth and corruption of top Chinese officials will serve as a powerful deterrent. The move signals escalating US efforts to support Taiwan and counter Chinese aggression in the region.
The bill now awaits further legislative steps before becoming law.
