US House Passes “PROTECT” Taiwan Act, Proposes Sweeping Sanctions on China | Firstpost America

Описание: The US House of Representatives passed the PROTECT Taiwan Act in a sweeping 395–2 vote, warning China of serious economic consequences if it moves against Taiwan. The bill would require Washington to seek Beijing’s exclusion from key global financial bodies, including the G20, if a threat to Taiwan endangers US interests. Lawmakers say the model mirrors sanctions imposed on Russia after its 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Taiwan remains central to global semiconductor supply chains and US strategic interests, with Washington approving billions in arms sales in recent years. However, geopolitical pragmatism tempers the rhetoric. The US depends heavily on China for rare earth minerals, complicating escalation even as tensions rise across the Taiwan Strait.
