{"product_id":"2940013235489","title":"Why Taiwan Matters","description":"It has been since 2004 that a full congressional hearing on Taiwan has been held on Capitol Hill, and much has changed  since then. Regrettably, the United States finds its interests and equities on the island significantly reduced - mostly as a function of the zero-sum policy game played by U.S. policy makers who are attempting to calibrate our interests with Taiwan on the basis of America's China policy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaiwan's policies and actions  clearly  reflect  and support  American foreign policy priorities  in Asia  - standing  in stark contrast to a number of  other  Asian  countries,  including China,  whose  policies and actions frequently run contrary to American  interests. Given these important advances  for  a long-term American friend, it would seem logical that Taiwan would be worthy of robust American support. That has not been the  case  in the recent past, however,  as America's relationship with China has cast a long shadow over U.S. - Taiwan relations.","brand":"House Committee on Foreign Affairs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47068733473008,"sku":"2940013235489","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013235489_p0.jpg?v=1763578729","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013235489","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
