U.S. President Donald Trump has signaled a potential shift in his position on arms sales to Taiwan following discussions with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
The development comes amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to manage the delicate balance between the two nations.
The U.S. and China have long been at odds over Taiwan, with the U.S. traditionally maintaining a policy of strategic ambiguity regarding its defense.
Trump's recent remarks suggest a more cautious approach, which could have implications for regional stability and investor sentiment.
The geopolitical landscape remains tense, with the U.S. and China navigating a complex web of economic and security interests.
Trump's summit with Xi has brought renewed focus to the issue, as both leaders seek to address a range of bilateral concerns.
