US House Passes Bill Banning Defense Department from Displaying 'Taiwan as Part of China' Maps
The US House of Representatives recently voted to pass a bill banning the Department of Defense from displaying maps that categorize Taiwan as part of China during official events. This move is interpreted as a reaffirmation of US support for Taiwan's sovereignty and a rejection of the People's Republic of China’s claims.
Under the provisions of the bill, all official documents and publicly displayed maps must clearly indicate Taiwan's sovereign status and must not depict it as part of China. The legislation has sparked significant political discussion, particularly amidst the growing tensions in US-China relations.
