Published by

The United States is set to announce an “ambitious roadmap” for deeper economic ties with Taiwan, a senior US official said Friday in the wake of tensions with China over the island.

Kurt Campbell, the White House coordinator for Asia-Pacific issues and an advisor to President Joe Biden, said the administration would continue to “deepen our ties with Taiwan, including through continuing to advance our economic and trade relationship.”

“For example, we’re developing an ambitious roadmap for trade negotiations which we intend to announce in the coming days,” he said.
