President Trump could change US policy toward Taiwan without congressional approval as he prepares talks with China's Xi Jinping, according to David Sacks, a fellow for Asia studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, speaking to France 24.
Sacks indicated that Trump possesses significant executive authority to alter the US position on Taiwan, potentially limiting Congress's ability to block such a move. The analysis highlights potential vulnerability in America's Taiwan commitments at a moment when the US president is preparing direct engagement with Beijing on trade and other strategic issues.
