Taiwan Official Dismisses Concerns Over U.S.-China Negotiations Impacting Island's Status
Taiwan's Representative to the United States, Alexander Tah-ray Yui, has expressed confidence that Taiwan is not being compromised in U.S.-China negotiations. This statement comes amid discussions of a proposed $14 billion arms sale to Taiwan, which President Trump is considering. Yui emphasized that the U.S. policy towards Taiwan remains unchanged, despite President Trump's recent visit to China and meetings with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. The U.S. continues to adhere to its 'One China' policy, acknowledging Beijing's stance on Taiwan while maintaining unofficial relations with the island. The U.S. is Taiwan's primary arms supplier, and the proposed arms sale has been approved by Congress but awaits President Trump's final decision. The sale is seen as a response to the perceived threat from China, and Yui highlighted the ongoing cooperation between the U.S. and Taiwan in various sectors, including trade and education.
