WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) today issued the following statement applauding the Trump administration’s decision to conduct regular arms sales to Taiwan:
“I am glad to see the Trump administration conducting regular arms sales to our Taiwanese allies, after many years in which the Obama administration played politics with our legal obligations to Taipei. These sales advance American national security both by empowering our allies to defend themselves and by visibly demonstrating that America stands with our friends. We should be constantly looking for ways to deepen cooperation.”
