America's top representative in Taiwan said Thursday that Washington expects the island to continue increasing its defense spending as Chinese security threats to the US ally continue to grow.
W Brent Christensen said the US had "not only observed Taiwan's enthusiasm to pursue necessary platforms to ensure its self-defense, but also its evolving tenacity to develop its own indigenous defense industry."
"And we anticipate that these figures will continue to grow commensurate with the threats Taiwan faces."
