Biden Approves $567 Million in Defense Support for Taiwan on Sunday
Sep 30, 2024, 08:41 AM
U.S. President Joe Biden has approved $567 million in defense support for Taiwan on Sunday, according to the White House. This move is part of the U.S. effort to bolster Taiwan's military capabilities amid increasing political and military pressure from China. The authorization includes defense articles and services, as well as military education and training. This approval is part of the $1 billion Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA) allocated annually for Taiwan, separate from the general cap of $100 million for other countries. The decision underscores Washington's commitment to supporting Taiwan despite not having official diplomatic ties. This is the latest move by the United States to support the island.
