Chairman John Moolenaar of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party addressed attendees at the Wilson Center's event, "Strategic Competition in the Second Trump Administration," held this morning in Washington D.C. As the keynote speaker, Moolenaar discussed concerns regarding the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and emphasized potential collaboration between Congress and the Trump administration to address these issues.
Moolenaar highlighted several areas where he believes CCP actions pose threats to the United States. "The Chinese Communist Party approaches the United States as an enemy to be harmed rather than as a partner," Moolenaar stated. He mentioned specific concerns such as fentanyl, intellectual property theft, transnational repression, Taiwan, and trade, which he described as various fronts in an ongoing conflict.
Expressing his commitment to bipartisan efforts within his committee, Moolenaar said, "I am proud to carry forward the Select Committee’s bipartisan mission and I look forward to working with the Trump Administration to win the competition against the CCP."
