US State Department approves the potential sale to Taiwan of $2.2 billion in arms, including Abrams tanks and Stinger missiles – Pentagon
Two M1A1 Abrams tanks and other military vehicles sit guarded on rail cars at a railyard in Washington, DC.
China's Foreign Ministry said last month when the possible sale was first reported that it was seriously concerned about US arms sales to self-ruled Taiwan, and it urged the United States to halt the sales to avoid harming bilateral ties. DSCA notified Congress on Monday of the possible arms sale, which it said could also include mounted machine guns, ammunition, Hercules armored vehicles for recovering inoperative tanks, heavy equipment transporters and related support.
The United States is the main arms supplier to Taiwan, which China deems a renegade province. Beijing has never renounced the use of force to bring the island under its control.
