"Intelligence Community Must Change to Address China's Threats," says U.S. House Intelligence Committee Report.

Democrats and Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives issued separate reports on the threat from China. The Democratic Party report stated that the U.S. government and intelligence community could no longer compete with China's in decades if there were no significant realignment of resources. A separate study by the Republicans made several recommendations, including a bilateral free trade agreement with Taiwan, to call for strict scrutiny of Chinese investments in U.S. companies.

The Democracy Party report was the conclusion of a two-year review of U.S. intelligence efforts. It stated that the U.S. must be more vigilant against China and must take a tougher stance against its theft of intellectual property and efforts to influence U.S. politics. "Absence of a significant and immediate reprioritization and realignment of resources would not favour the U.S. to compete with China, diplomatically, economically and militarily, on the global stage in the future," said by Representative Adam B. Schiff, the chairman of the committee.

The report alleged that China had used its unfair advantage and theft of intellectual property to dominate the global market, thereby shifting the global economy and investment to China. It had also attempted to take control of the Indo-Pacific region by militarizing the East Sea and the South China Sea with coercion. The report argued that the PLA had become a force capable of conducting complex joint operations through comprehensive restructuring, which enhanced China's confidence in its ability to project power regionally, particularly to Taiwan.
