US President Donald Trump on Wednesday declined to say whether his administration would move to defend Taiwan against any possible mainland Chinese attack, while touting his “great relationship” with President Xi Jinping.
“I don’t comment because I don’t ever want to put myself in that position” to commit in advance, Trump told reporters at the administration’s first cabinet meeting, joined by Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, who has extensive business interests in China.
