Ties between Taiwan and the United States are “solid as a rock”, said Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te on Thursday, the 5th, a day after Presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping spoke by phone on topics including the future of the self-governed island.
Xi, in his first phone call with Trump since November, warned the US president to be “prudent” in supplying weapons to Taiwan, according to a summary of the call provided by China’s Foreign Ministry.
Trump said the call with Xi was “excellent” and “thorough” in a post on the Truth Social network. The American president added that he is looking forward to a trip to China in April.
