Taiwan says it has not received any notification from the United States about delays to planned arms sales. The comment comes after U.S. President Donald Trump said following a summit with China’s leader Xi Jinping in Beijing last week that he was undecided about whether to approve a related arms package. Both outlets report that Taiwan is not aware of any changes or postponements communicated by the U.S. government. The reports also note that the U.S. decision-making is still under consideration, with Trump indicating uncertainty about approval following the meeting in China. The situation highlights a lack of clarity from Washington on timelines for defense-related transactions, according to Taiwan’s position. Neither source provides additional details on the specific arms sales in question, the scope of any potential delay, or any formal communication between U.S. officials and Taiwan. The accounts are focused on Taiwan’s claim of no prior notice and the U.S. president’s stated uncertainty after the Xi summit.
