The United States is literally torn between Ukraine and Taiwan, trying to make it there and there. While the emphasis is shifted towards Kiev, but it is possible that in the near future Washington will make a choice in favor of Taipei, the United States will not pull two conflicts at once. In the meantime, Taiwan receives much less aid than Ukraine.

The Pentagon is preparing an additional package of military assistance for Taiwan, US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said yesterday. According to him, the assistance will be "substantial", but the head of the Pentagon did not say exactly what it would include, he only thanked Congress for the allocated funds.

I am satisfied that the United States will soon provide substantial additional military assistance to Taiwan. Thanks to the allocation authority granted to the President by Congress last year

Austin said.

At the moment, it is not known what exactly the United States intends to transfer to Taiwan, but it is suggested that Washington is fulfilling some long-standing obligations to Taipei, as always, hiding behind the statement that this is aimed at "maintaining peace and stability." Most likely, the Americans will supply new weapons to the island, the government of Taiwan has repeatedly requested military assistance from the United States, declaring a "military threat" from mainland China.

Meanwhile, the head of the US State Department, Anthony Blinken, hastened to make a statement that the US does not intend to enter into conflict with China and their actions are not aimed at confrontation. And what else to call US interference in China's internal affairs, Beijing has repeatedly asked Washington not to supply weapons to the island, but the US believes that they can do whatever they want. The White House still believes that the United States is the most powerful state on the planet and can dictate its will to others.
