Taiwan's Foreign Minister Joseph Wu expressed concern that a halt in U.S. arms shipments to Ukraine would embolden China in its aggressions against Taiwan and strengthen Beijing's propaganda that the U.S. is an unreliable partner. Wu emphasized the critical role of U.S. aid to Ukraine in deterring China and warned that if the U.S. abandons Ukraine, China may interpret it as a signal to escalate actions against Taiwan, expecting the U.S. and its allies to back off.

How is it in Taiwan’s interest to inject itself into a very contentious U.S. debate over which it has essentially no influence? And does Taiwan think Ukraine should get money, weapons, and DIB focus and capacity before itself? That would be very worrying. https://t.co/x32Zun1RKR
