The US Senate on Wednesday passed a bill criticised by China promoting closer US ties with Taiwan.
The Senate passed the Taiwan Travel Act by unanimous consent. It passed the House of Representatives in January, also without opposition. The legislation only needs President Donald Trump’s signature to become law.

The legislation says it should be US policy to allow officials at all levels to travel to Taiwan to meet their Taiwanese counterparts, permit high-level Taiwanese officials to enter the United States “under respectful conditions” and meet with US officials and encourage Taiwanese economic and cultural representatives to conduct business in the United States.
