Survey of 2021 Senate campaign websites: on Foreign Policy

Marjorie K. Eastman: US must hold China accountable at every turn

As an Army veteran with a master's degree in International Security, with concentrations in Homeland Security, Intelligence, and Human Rights, Marjorie deeply understands how China poses a serious threat to our freedoms--and what it will take to win the 21st century. As a Senator, Marjorie will fight to bring critical supply chains back to American soil, hold China accountable at every turn, and strengthen our national defense. Source: 2021 N.C.

Raphael Warnock: Use diplomacy as first resort; speak out against tyrants

Reverend Warnock will advance America's values around the world and commits to supporting the use of diplomacy as a first, best resort, and will speak out against tyrants and dictators. Source: 2021 GA Senate campaign website WarnockForGeorgia.com Oct 11, 2021

Haneefah Khaaliq: Limit arms sales and transfers to foreign countries

Vote against any legislation or action that provides more ammunition and guns to haphazardly fuel the Middle East or any international conflict. The Trump administration "unsigned" an international arms sales agreement moving to withdraw the U.S. from the United Nations' Arms Trade Treaty. The treaty reduced human suffering caused by irresponsible and illegal arms transfers and thereby, promoted regional peace. Source: 2021 IN Senate campaign website HaneefahKhaaliq.org Oct 5, 2021

Gary Black: We must check China's influence everywhere on the globe

The Chinese Communist Party must be held to account for the pandemic China unleashed, the atrocities it commits against its own people, and its rampant theft of American technology and intellectual property. Simply put, we must check China's influence on every corner of the globe, and I'm prepared to lead that charge in the U.S. Senate.

Gary Black: America has been humiliated on the world stage

Since President Biden and Raphael Warnock took office, America has been humiliated on the world stage. Afghanistan has turned into Saigon 2.0. Russia has been given the Nord Stream 2 pipeline and the NEW Start Treaty. Nothing has been done to check China's rising influence. The Middle East is on fire once again. Raphael Warnock has been MIA and is clearly out of his depth on foreign policy. I'll stand for a fearless approach to national defense and strengthening our international position.

Matt Dolan: Hold China accountable; stand up to China's aggression

Long before communist China unleashed a virus on the world, they were cheating on trade, stealing our intellectual property and wreaking havoc on our foreign policy aims. For America to remain the global leader in job creation and innovation we need public leaders who aren't afraid to challenge China. I will be a leading voice in holding China accountable, advocating for the return of America's strength in the world and leaving no doubt that the US will stand up to China's aggression.

Jane Timken: China is the greatest foreign threat facing the US

China is the greatest foreign threat facing the United States. While Barack Obama and Joe Biden bowed to China, President Trump had what it took to stand up to the Communist regime and fight for American workers. We need leaders who will hold China accountable for their theft of intellectual property and American jobs, their persecution of Christians and religious minorities, and for their lies and incompetence that unleashed the coronavirus and brought the entire world economy to the brink.

Jane Timken: I am proud to stand with the Israeli nation

Israel is a strong, reliable, and trusted ally of the United States and I am proud to stand with the Israeli nation in support of its sovereignty over its rightful territory, regions, and people. I stand with the Israeli nation in believing Jerusalem is the historic, current, and future capital. The United States and Israel have a long history of mutual cooperation and trade built on a strong foundation of shared Judeo-Christian values and as U.S. Senator, I will always protect this alliance. Source: 2021 OH Senate campaign website JaneTimkenForOH.com Sep 12, 2021

Katie Britt: I believe an attack on Israel is an attack on America

I am proud to avidly support Israel, and I will never back down or waver from that stance. President Trump was right to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, and I will fight to keep it there permanently. Jerusalem is the historical capital of Israel, which has an undivided right to the city. Israel is our friend and partner, and I believe an attack on them is an attack on America.

Mark Brnovich: The interests of the United States must come first

We face a fundamental divide. When it comes to foreign policy, will we put the interests of the American people first or will we adopt a globalist perspective? The answer for me is clear. The interests of the United States must come first. China remains a critical threat. We must be relentless in standing up to them.

Blake Masters: Tough on China, don't try to export democracy

The American people have made clear that we need to end our pointless interventions abroad and focus on our problems at home. Yet we remain entrenched in countless conflicts around the globe, with little to show for it. We need a foreign policy for this century: tough on actual threats like China, without trying to "export democracy" and remake other nations in our image.

Vicky Hartzler: Criticism led to being sanctioned by Chinese Communist Party

?As a member of the Congressional Executive Commission on China, she confronted China's human rights abuses, persecution of Christians, and long before the pandemic, pushed to bring production of life-sustaining medicines back to America. She voted to stop federal government loans to China, and introduced legislation to stop China's misuse of student visas. The Chinese Communist Party view Vicky as such a threat to their regime they have sanctioned her. Source: 2021 Missouri Senate campaign website VickyHartzler.com Jul 9, 2021

James Bradley: Bolster Israel; cut off funds to terrorists

Pro policies to bolster the U.S. Israel security relationship
Cut off funding of combatant nations who harbor and protect terrorist groups
Turn-key operations with substantial tax rebates for international companies to invest domestically
More efficient work visas for offshore inventors to bring their innovations to America to create jobs and build a more robust economy
American workers first before bringing labor from offshore
I stand with Israel. I whole heartedly support Israel's right to exist. I believe that [Trump's] proposed "Peace Plan" is worthy of a thorough vetting. I will not reject any viable plan for peace in the Middle East which guarantees Israel's security and Jewish freedom of worship in their ancestral land. This is what God said about the nation of Israel:
"I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you" (Genesis 12:3) Let us keep America blessed!

Eric Schmitt: First AG to sue China for "unleashing the coronavirus"

During Trump's Presidency, Eric took the lead on backing up the Administration's policies. Eric was the first Attorney General to sue China to hold them accountable for unleashing the coronavirus on Americans. Source: 2021 Missouri Senate campaign website SchmittForSenate.com May 2, 2021

Bernie Moreno: China unleashed coronavirus, socialist/fascist ideology

The Chinese Communist Party is an existential threat. Our elected leaders, of both parties, severely underestimated the threat from China. Donald J. Trump was right that China was our greatest threat. They have all but declared war on America. They not only unleashed the coronavirus on the world, they are looking to unleash a greater threat: their socialist, fascist ideology.

We should spend more time and energy making America great than worrying about what other nations think of us. A strong American military, the best in the world, is the only way to ensure peace.
