Taiwanul aprobă bugetul pentru 2026 după o întârziere record

Taiwan's parliament approved the 2026 budget after a 266-day delay, allocating significant funds for drone development amid rising military pressure from China. The total budget is approximately 2.98 trillion Taiwanese dollars, with nearly 1.98 billion earmarked for drone industry enhancements. President Lai Ching-te criticized the final budget for unjustified cuts. The approval comes just before the government presents the 2027 budget, which is expected to include record military spending to bolster Taiwan's defense capabilities against China.
