So far, the Chinese delegation has applauded Secretary Hegseth for repeating China's line that the two countries need to maintain a constructive strategic stability.
Not a whole lot.
Let's remember that there was a lot of confusion recently when President Trump commented that arms sales to Taiwan is a, quote, very good negotiating chip with China.
Days later, a senior U.S.
official said arms sales to Taiwan have been paused due to the war in Iran.
Now, today, Hegseth said any decision about the future of Taiwan arms sales rests solely with President Trump.
But he also said the U.S.
has good weapons stockpiles, and he played down concerns that weapons sales to Taiwan
is contingent on how things are going in the Middle East conflict.
And he said there is no change in the status of U.S.-Taiwan relations.
Also no.
He repeated what President Trump has already said, that the president is patient and will only strike a deal if it's a good one, and that's defined as one that ensures Iran doesn't get a nuclear weapon.
He also said that the U.S.
is ready to resume strikes on Iran if no deal is reached.
Of course, there were some U.S.
strikes last week already.
Yeah, I mean, China did not send the defense minister to the summit, and instead they sent a low-level delegation of military experts and scholars.
Now, in terms of direct U.S.-China engagement at this forum, I think that's less important because
Secretary Hegseth already said that the two countries have more military to military exchanges, or at least that's the plan.
And that's important because they need to avoid any misunderstanding that could spark a conflict.
