Trump proposes US arms sales to China
The American ambassador in Beijing stated that President Donald Trump offered China the purchase of American weapons, particularly for Taiwan, which remains a source of disagreement between Washington and Beijing. This issue was brought up again during Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to the United States, where the ambassador emphasized that Trump claims the United States sells weapons to other countries, and that the pursuit of buying these weapons is regularly discussed between the two leaders. Washington is legally committed to enabling Taiwan to defend itself, and it approved a defense deal valued at $11.1 billion in December—its largest since 1979—reflecting ongoing tensions between the United States and China over Taiwan's independence and its military and political actions.
