U.S. congressional midterm elections are receiving attention because the results may affect U.S. policy toward China.
However, some former U.S. officials believe that no matter which party controls Congress, U.S. policy toward China will not change much.
Both parties are concerned about security and technology issues related to China, while the president still determines the main direction.
Congress can propose laws, increase pressure, and criticize the government, but it is difficult for it to make the president completely change policy.
Arms sales to Taiwan may become an important point to watch.
Lawmakers from both parties may ask the government to sell more weapons to Taiwan, but the final decision still rests with the president.
China opposes U.S. arms sales to Taiwan.
Congress will also continue to focus on advanced technology. It may strengthen export controls and protect intellectual property to prevent important technology from being stolen.
After the election, people can judge whether policy has changed by looking at several questions: Will arms sales to Taiwan be approved? Will technology restrictions be strengthened? And can Congress's views become real action?
