标 题: US to sell $1.4B in weapons to Taiwan

The US' decision to go ahead with the sale of a $1.4 billion arms package to
Taiwan threatens to undermine US-Chinese relations, China's ambassador to
Washington said.
Speaking to reporters at an embassy reception in DC Thursday, Ambassador Cui
Tiankai said recent US moves eroded the trust built when US President
Donald Trump met Chinese President Xi Jinping in Florida in April.
"All these actions -- sanctions against Chinese companies and especially
arms sales to Taiwan -- will certainly undermine the mutual confidence
between the two sides and runs counter to the spirit of the Mar-a-Lago
summit," Cui said, Reuters reported.
On Thursday, the Trump administration notified Congress of its plans to go
ahead with the controversial arms package, the first such sale under
President Trump.
State Department spokesperson Heather Nauert said the agreement included "
seven proposed defense sales for Taiwan," adding that the deal was valued at
"about $1.42 billion." |
