Trump Says He Wants to Speak with Taiwan President
Share:
US President-elect Donald Trump has stated he wants to speak with Taiwan's president, a move that could strain relations with communist China. Such direct communication between US and Taiwanese leaders represents a significant diplomatic shift, as the United States maintains official diplomatic relations with Beijing under its One China policy while providing unofficial support to Taiwan. China considers Taiwan a breakaway province and opposes any actions that suggest recognition of Taiwanese independence or sovereignty.
