US considering sale of seven major weapons systems to Taiwan

With the Trump administration intensifying pressure on China, Reuters reports, citing four unnamed sources, the US is considering selling as many as seven major weapons systems to Taiwan.

In response to the reports, Taiwan’s Defense Ministry said the reported package was a “media assumption,” and that it handled weapons purchase talks and assessments in a low-key, confidential way, so could not offer public comment until there was a formal US notification of any sales to Congress, per Reuters.
