As the leaders of the United States and China are expected to meet in mid-May, a Republican congressman who has long championed human rights issues stated that US-China relations should be built on truth and a commitment to human rights. This veteran Republican also urged President Donald Trump to raise the case of Hong Kong pro-democracy media mogul Jimmy Lai during the talks, requesting that Lai be granted medical parole.
