Taiwan President Lai Ching-te emphasized that cooperation between the United States and Taiwan is essential for regional stability. Taiwan relies heavily on US security support to deter China from its plans to forcibly take control of the island. The statement underscores Taiwan's continued dependence on American military backing as tensions persist in the Taiwan Strait, where China maintains its position that Taiwan is part of its territory and has not ruled out the use of force to achieve reunification.
