Pekín instó a Trump a frenar la venta de armas a Taiwán durante su visita en mayo

Funcionarios chinos presionaron a Estados Unidos para que redujera el volumen de entregas de armas a Taiwán durante el reciente viaje del presidente Donald Trump a Pekín. Estas demandas se plantearon desde principios de año.

El presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, regresó de Pekín a principios de este mes y describió la visita como un avance histórico. Destacó los acuerdos comerciales alcanzados y sus estrechos vínculos con el líder chino Xi Jinping.

Al margen del viaje, Pekín buscó concesiones sobre Taiwán. Funcionarios chinos habían planteado la cuestión a principios de año y pidieron a Washington que hiciera una pausa en cualquier aprobación de armas para Taiwán antes y después de la visita.

Las fuentes señalaron que Pekín se centró en el tamaño de los paquetes de armas aprobados durante el segundo mandato de Trump. Los funcionarios preferían las aprobaciones más pequeñas vistas bajo el mandato del expresidente Joe Biden y buscaban detener la tendencia de mayores entregas.
