Taiwan has signed a treaty with the United States government, which allows the purchase of a thousand attack drones for defence against the ‘Chinese threat’. This was reported by Bloomberg news agency.
An agreement between the US and Taiwan is expected to be signed soon, which will fix all the details of the deal: the number of drones, their cost in US currency and delivery terms.
Admiral Samuel Paparo, who heads the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, said that the United States will be able to prevent the rapid conquest of Taiwan by China.
Recall, earlier Reuters reported that the United States has expressed agreement to a possible arms deal with Taiwan for $2 billion.
