Chinese Foreign Minister: "Taiwan has never been a state in the past and will not be one in the future""We have taken note of President Trump's statements. Taiwan is an integral part of China's territory," he added. After negotiations with the Chinese leader, Donald Trump stated that he does not want to involve the US in a war over Taiwan and does not support drastic steps towards its independence.Trump also suggested reviewing arms supplies to Taiwan and emphasized the need to maintain the current status quo.His statements sharply contrast with the position of Joe Biden's administration, which publicly supported military defense of Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion.Trump's advisors fear that China is determined to seize Taiwan, writes Axios. They believe that Beijing is increasingly asserting its claims to the island and is no longer hiding its policy of using force to exert pressure.Taiwan remains a key hub of the global microchip industry - about 60% of global supplies are produced there.
