A deputy defense minister from Taiwan is set to visit the United States this week for a ceremony marking the completion of a new F-16 fighter jet for the island. This trip, the first publicly acknowledged visit of its kind since U.S. President Donald Trump took office, highlights growing military ties between Washington and Taipei. The event underscores Taiwan’s ongoing efforts to bolster its air force amid rising tensions with China, which strongly opposes U.S. military support for the island.
