The USS John Finn has completed the third US naval transit of the Taiwan Strait since the beginning of the Biden administration.

The US Seventh Fleet says that the transit took place Wednesday, and was in accordance with international law. The US Seventh Fleet says this latest transit through the Taiwan Strait demonstrates the United States’ commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific region. The US Seventh Fleet says that it will continue operating within the bounds permitted by international law.
