Taiwan’s legislative speaker visited the US Capitol, where he planned to meet with members of a committee focused on competition with China as the Biden administration readies a $500 million fast-tracked weapons package for the island.

You Si-kun, Taiwan’s top legislative official, is set to visit with members of the House Committee on Competition with China to discuss deepening economic and security ties, according to a person familiar with the plans who discussed them Monday on condition of anonymity.
