International relations

Our FMS sales are a critical tool of foreign policy.

Israel has a right to defend itself.

Cuba is currently hosting at least four Chinese spy bases, four.

Recognition of Taiwan is very important around the globe.

To ignore our partners in the hemisphere is to ignore the critical realities that threaten our national security.

It's very clear to see the difference in treatment to these two countries.

I have just proven with a few examples that China is on the offense while the United States is ignoring our allies in Latin America.

Let me repeat it. Our hemisphere has been invaded by China.

China, in my understanding, is the greatest threat to the United States, the greatest threat that the United States has ever faced.

Can you please take this back to your country and let them know that we have direct experience here in Europe that really bad things happen when the United States chooses not to lead?

I think it is important to point out our problem is not with the Chinese people, or people of Chinese descent. The problem is with the current Chinese government.

This appears to be a, maybe the broadest sanction and position I've ever seen and maybe ever imposed in history.

I just think this is such an important measure that we don't want them to just say, well, the Chinese people are going to get mad.

This ends up holding other nations hostage or leaving them bankrupt through their malign activities.

I am offering an amendment to this bill to make it the policy of the United States to use its voice in the International Civil Aviation Organization, ICAO, to advocate for Taiwan's participation in ICAO meetings and events.

It is clear that the Chinese Communist Party and the People's Republic of China are our greatest geopolitical threat.

The U.S.-ASEAN comprehensive strategic relationship is critical to enabling the United States and ASEAN to cooperate on a number of regional issues.

It would be counter our values to ban a platform for free speech be it one from China, from any other country or, frankly, one domestically.
