Trump to Decide on Taiwan Arms Sales Following Warning From Xi Jinping as Tensions Rise
Donald Trump will soon decide on new arms shipments to Taiwan after receiving a warning from Xi Jinping during a recent phone call.The potential deal follows a $11 billion sale in December that triggered large-scale Chinese military drills and comes as Lai Ching-te proposes a $40 billion air defense project called "T-Dome."While the US 2026 National Defense Strategy focuses on regional deterrence, Beijing remains critical of
Lai Ching-te, calling him a "war instigator" for his warnings about Chinese expansionism.
