Taiwan to hold fourth round of trade talks with US this week

Investing.com -- Taiwan announced it will hold a fourth round of trade discussions with the United States this week, according to a statement from cabinet spokesperson Michelle Lee on Monday.

Lee emphasized that Taipei remains "committed to pursuing balanced bilateral trade and enhancing mutual benefit between Taiwan and the US," while protecting the economy’s interests and industry.

The spokesperson also refuted claims from opposition lawmakers who had suggested the government received and concealed notification of new US tariffs. Lee clarified that Taipei has not been informed of any new levy rates.

The self-governed democracy has expressed confidence about reaching a trade agreement with the United States, which serves as Taiwan’s primary military supporter amid increasing aggression from China. Earlier in October, a Taiwanese national security official, speaking anonymously due to the sensitive nature of the topic, indicated that Taiwan was among the few parties making consistent progress in negotiations with the US.
