The geopolitical tension stoked by U.S.House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan continues to ferment.And in yet another move to challenge the one-China principle,the U.S.on August 17 declared it would begin trade talks with Taiwan on a trade and economic initiative.Meanwhile,showing blatant intent to contain China,the U.S.passed and signed into law the Chips and Science Act,which contains provisions that restrict related companies’normal economic,trade and investment activities in China.This is discriminatory and will distort the global semiconductor supply chain and disrupt international trade,China’s Ministry of Commerce said on August 18.
