Beijing demands US halt biggest arms sale to Taiwan of Donald Trump’s presidency
Beijing has demanded the United States reverse its approval of the biggest arms sale to Taiwan since Donald Trump took over as US president, while Taipei said it showed Washington’s support in the face of growing military threats from mainland China.
The sale of equipment worth US$2.2 billion was approved by the US State Department on Monday, said the Defence Security Cooperation Agency, the Pentagon agency handling foreign arms sales.
The Taipei government’s foreign ministry said the approved sale underlined America’s support, especially with Beijing repeatedly staging war games to intimidate the self-ruled island and sabotage peace and stability in the region.
I hope we sell them enough nukes to take out the Chi-Coms if they attack them .
