China angry as US approves $1.83bn arms sale to Taiwan

The US government has approved the sale of weapons, ammunition, and other military systems to Taiwan for the first time since 2011. China is protesting the move, calling it interference in its internal matters and harmful to relations with Washington.
Taiwan will get armored transports, a variety of anti-tank missiles, ship-mounted point defense guns, and other military equipment as part of the package, as well as two refurbished Oliver Hazard Perry-class missile frigates. The total value of the weapons package, the first in over four years, is estimated at $1.83 billion.

The State Department formally informed Congress of the sale on Wednesday, a year after lawmakers voted to approve it. Though the US does not recognize Taiwan as a separate country, a 1979 law governing relations with the island obligates Washington to provide the regime in Taipei with “sufficient self-defense capabilities” and come to its protection in case of a Chinese attack.
