Trump admitted he discussed the $14bn #Taiwan arms package with Xi in great detail. That appears to breach the Six Assurances - the US commitment not to consult Beijing on arms sales to Taiwan. Taiwan has become part of a broader US-China negotiation. There is no neutral outcome https://t.co/SyvFCPJIhV #Trump #Taiwan #USChinaRelations #TW #US #CN
Most analysis of the #Beijing summit stops at US-China. That is only half the picture. Beijing's leadership appears concerned that #Taiwan and #Japan are becoming part of the same problem. For Japan this is not a financial question but strategic and increasingly existential. https://t.co/8KuJzMX1bb #BeijingSummit #Taiwan #Japan #CN #TW #JP
