Trump Offered to Sell Arms to China, Ambassador Says
Original: Trump Offered to Sell Arms to China, U.S. Ambassador Says
A U.S. ambassador says President Trump offered to sell arms to China, according to the New York Times. The claim has drawn attention because of the tensions between Washington and Beijing over trade, technology and security, and because arms sales to China would conflict with long-standing U.S. policy and sanctions. The report is prompting questions about what exactly was proposed and how seriously.
Why now: A report that a U.S. president offered arms sales to China contradicts U.S. policy toward Beijing and touches on current tensions.
