SCMP: Taiwan may pay an ‘unthinkable’ price for accepting free US weapons, says former defence minister
Former Taiwanese defence minister Feng Shih-kuan has warned that the island will pay a price for accepting free weapons provided by the United States.
US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin confirmed recently that the Pentagon would send “additional security assistance” free of charge to the island amid escalating tensions with mainland China.
“If you suddenly receive such free aid, you need to pay a certain unthinkable price,” Feng told reporters on Thursday when asked to comment on the plan.
Feng, who now heads Taiwan’s Veterans Affairs Council, declined to say what that price would be.

WNU Editor: Former Taiwanese defence minister Feng Shih-kuan has a point. You only need to look at Ukraine to know that the price of "free" US aid to Taiwan is war and everything connected with it.

Without those weapons, the regime would not have a fighting chance.
What an odd statement.
WNU would object to a bullied kid getting free martial arts lesson.
WNU would scream bloody murder, if the martial arts lesson worked and the bullied beat the hell out of the bully after being attacked.
WNU is a disgrace.
Ukraine's resistance with free weapons, which has stymied Russia, is the only reason why Xi has not invaded Taiwan.
That is what the editor trying to imply here I think.
You are right.
