US President's Diplomatic Dance With China May Impact Taiwan's Defense
The US President’s approach to Taiwan, including a potential ’two-step’ with China, may have significant implications for the island’s defense and the broader Indo-Pacific region. Taiwan’s internal politics, with the Kuomintang party supporting reconciliation with the mainland, may also impact its defense strategy. The US National Defense Strategy prioritizes deterring China in the region, but Trump’s policy could alter this approach, as reported by The Hill.
