The delegation intends to travel to the island in the near future.
House members Ami Bera, a Democrat, and Republicans Andy Barr and Mario Diaz-Balart want to visit Taiwan. After them, Republican Mike Gallagher, chairman of the House Select Committee on China, may fly to Taiwan.
The influential U.S. parliamentarians should show their country's support to Taiwan's leadership with their visit. On January 13, the island held elections for the head of the administration and members of the Legislature, the Financial Times reported.
Prior to that, orientalist Yuri Tavrovsky in a conversation with RuNews24 noted that America deliberately provokes the conflict between China and Taiwan to maximally weaken the former. He pointed out that the elections in the island republic brought to power a moderate force that does not support a military conflict with mainland China.
