Taiwan's National Security Council Secretary-General, Wu Zhaoxie, secretly led a delegation to the US for security talks through a 'special channel'. This meeting, the first since Trump's return to power, aimed to strengthen bilateral security communication.
The meeting occurs against a backdrop of significant US tariffs on Taiwanese goods and China's military drills near Taiwan. The article suggests the talks focused on security issues related to China, separate from the tariff concerns.
The article highlights concerns about a potential communication breakdown between high-level officials in Taiwan and the US. The absence of the Taiwanese foreign minister from the meeting is noted.
