Taiwan absent from public remarks at Xi-Trump meeting
Original: No public mentions of Taiwan at official Xi and Trump meeting
Xi Jinping and Donald Trump met officially, and Taiwan was not mentioned in any public statements from the meeting. DW reported the omission, which is notable given Taiwan is typically a central point of tension between Washington and Beijing. Observers are likely debating whether the silence reflects a deliberate diplomatic arrangement or signals a shift in how the two powers are handling the Taiwan issue.
Why now: The omission of Taiwan, usually a core sticking point in US-China talks, strikes observers as significant and possibly a deliberate diplomatic choice.
