Taipei – Taiwan has been waiting for months for U.S. President Donald Trump to approve a $14 billion sale of weapons and equipment, which the island democracy would use to fend off a potential Chinese attack.
Washington — Taipei’s most important security backer — has sold many billions of dollars’ worth of arms to Taiwan, most recently in December when it approved a record $11.1 billion package.
China opposes American military support for Taiwan, which Beijing claims is part of its territory and has threatened to seize with force.
