CGTN: China warns U.S. 'not to play with fire' on Taiwan issue
China on Monday urged the U.S. "not to play with fire" on the Taiwan issue after the U.S. approved the potential sale of military-technical assistance to Taiwan worth an estimated $108 million.
The U.S. Defense Security Cooperation Agency said in a statement on Friday that the State Department has made a determination approving a possible foreign military sale to the "Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United States of Blanket Order Contractor Technical Assistance Support and related equipment."
This will be the fifth arms sale to the Taiwan region since U.S. President Joe Biden took office in January 2021 and the fourth one this year.
