Taiwan's Lai set to push back U.S. stopover as U.S.-China trade talks continue, sources say
- On Monday, Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te planned a New York stopover in August en route to Paraguay, Guatemala and Belize, but the United States blocked the visit, FT reported.
- Trade tensions contributed as the US is amid sensitive trade talks with China, and Beijing objects to official US engagement with Taiwanese leadership.
- During talks in Stockholm, top US and Chinese officials met for more than 3 hours, and analysts said a 90-day tariff and export control truce extension was likely.
- The delay means Lai's trip is pushed back as Taiwan's Presidential Office said he has no overseas travel plans while focusing on trade discussions and typhoon recovery.
- With a potential tariff hike looming, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said he did not expect an `enormous breakthrough` today, as China faces a deadline.
