Chinese diplomats are pressuring lawmakers from at least six countries not to attend a China -focused summit in Taiwan .
Politicians in Bolivia , Colombia , Slovakia , North Macedonia , Bosnia and Herzegovina , and one other Asian country that declined to be named.
They say they are getting texts, calls and urgent requests for meetings that would conflict with their plans to travel to Taiwan .
The summit begins Monday and is being held by the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China .
In 2021 , Beijing downgraded relations and blocked imports from Lithuania , a member of both the EU and NATO , after the Baltic nation broke with diplomatic custom by agreeing that a Taiwanese representative office in its capital of Vilnius would bear the name Taiwan instead of Chinese Taipei .
The following year , the EU adopted a resolution criticizing Beijing 's behavior toward Taiwan .
