Confuzie la Washington. Trump îl contrazice pe ambasadorul SUA la Beijing: „Nu am discutat despre arme pentru China. Poate se referea la Taiwan”
Donald Trump denied discussing U.S. arms sales to China with Xi Jinping, contradicting U.S. Ambassador David Perdue's claims. The State Department clarified that U.S. law prohibits such sales and no plans exist for them. Perdue had stated that Trump raised the issue during their recent meeting, but Trump expressed surprise and suggested the ambassador might have confused China with Taiwan. The U.S. continues to supply arms to Taiwan, which China opposes. The State Department reiterated that there are no plans to sell arms to China.
