Trump Signs Bill to Expand US-Taiwan Contacts


Listen Later


Assignment Editor Laurel Stewart is tracking a new move in US-Taiwan ties after US President Donald Trump signed the Taiwan Assurance Implementation Act into law. The bill tells the State Department to review its rules for engaging with Taiwan at least every five years. Supporters say it could lead to more US interaction with Taiwan, even as some are watching closely after Trump’s recent talks with China’s leader Xi Jinping.



Other stories we’re watching: Honduras’ elections, Taiwan’s stalled defense budget, and an award for former Digital Minister Audrey Tang in Sweden.
