President Donald Trump's meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping this week is being watched with anxiety in Taipei, where officials fear Taiwan's security could become part of a broader negotiation involving trade and U.S.-China relations.
The concern intensified after Trump said he would discuss U.S. arms sales to Taiwan with Xi, a subject Beijing has long demanded Washington stop supporting. "I'm going to have that discussion," Trump told reporters. "President Xi would like us not to," he added about arms sales.
