Taiwan is bolstering its military ties with the United States and will cooperate even more closely with it and other friendly nations to deal with 'authoritarian expansionism', President Tsai Ing-wen told visiting U.S. lawmakers on Tuesday.
Illustrating those close military ties with the United States, U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for China Michael Chase,last week for a visit, two sources familiar with matter said earlier. It was not clear if he was still in Taiwan.
Ro Khanna, a member of the U.S. House China Select Committee and who is leading the U.S. bipartisan delegation, told Tsai the group was there to strengthen both security and economic ties. "We come here to strengthen the economic relationship. Representing Silicon Valley I particularly appreciated the meeting with Dr Morris Chang," he said, referring to the founder of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd"How we can continue to build the economic partnership on technology and also of course the partnership on military and defence," Khanna added.
In August, China staged military exercises near Taiwan to express anger at then-U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taipei. Taiwan's democratically elected government rejects China's sovereignty claims and says only the Taiwanese people can decide their future.
