President Trump has not decided whether to proceed with a major weapons sale to Taiwan, adding uncertainty about U.S. support for the island following his trip to China this week.
President Trump is not committing to approving the latest round of arms sales to Taiwan after Chinese President Xi Jinping's warning that mishandling the issue could lead to conflict.
Despite fears that Taiwan might be sacrificed for a trade deal, the Trump-Xi summit ended without any new agreements, leaving Taiwan awaiting approval of the latest arms package.
The Trump-Xi summit in Beijing ended with warm gestures but resulted in limited progress on key issues, including U.S. arms sales to Taiwan, which Xi warned could destabilize bilateral relations.
