Greer walks back Trump's Taiwan arms push, pledging policy continuity
U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said there is 'no change' in U.S. policy toward Taiwan and attempted to walk back President Trump's remarks about delaying a $14 billion arms sale, noting the timing and details would come from the president. Trump had suggested he hasn’t approved the sale and could use it as a bargaining chip with China, comments that could raise questions about adherence to the Six Assurances and the Taiwan Relations Act. Lawmakers including House Speaker Mike Johnson stressed support for Taiwan, while a December arms package had already been approved.
