U.S. President Donald Trump stated on the 20th that he would speak with Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te, without specifying a timeline. The comment came after his visit to China last week to meet President Xi Jinping and his subsequent announcement that a decision on a new arms sale package to Taiwan would be made soon. In response, President Lai said that if given the opportunity, he would emphasize that U.S. military procurement is essential for safeguarding Taiwan's security and maintaining peace in the Taiwan Strait, and that he hopes these sales will continue.
