LIVE: Trump Wants Taiwan to Pay for American Defence | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Former US President Donald Trump's recent statement on Taiwan is stirring up tensions in the island nation. In a recent interview, Trump said he wants Taiwan to pay for American military support and assistance. The US is Taiwan's biggest defence partner and also its biggest shield against Chinese aggression in the Indo-Pacific region. The current US President Joe Biden has repeatedly promised to protect Taiwan in case of an attack. However, his Republican rival Trump does not share the same position. Taiwan's Premier has reacted to Trump's remarks, saying that "US-Taiwan relationship remains rock solid". If Washington's support for Taipei dwindles, the island nation will be vulnerable to Beijing's attacks.
Trump has a clear lead in the 2024 US Presidential race, which is why his remarks carry more weight. The former President's statements have stirred fears in Taiwan's stock market with the country's top chip company, TSMC, falling by 2.6%. If Trump wins the 2024 Presidential election, his policies are bound to have a larger impact on US' allies and the rest of the world. On Vantage tonight, Palki Sharma tells you more.
