Lyle Morris(@LyleJMorris):Pleased to contribute to this join collaboration between @ChinaFile and @AsiaPolicy on What to Watch at the Xi-Trump Summit. I offered my take on the question of whether Washington’s long-standing policy toward Taiwan will inevitably test Beijing’s “red line” on Taiwan. I find that it will, because U.S. policy, including arms sales and congressional visits to Taiwan, is rooted in the Taiwan Relations Act and reflects enduring, bi-partisan practices that will continue regardless of who occupies the White House. Alongside colleagues @wstv_lizzi, @neilthomas123, Craig Allen, @pstAsiatech, @hlntnr, and Jing Qian. Thanks to Jennifer Choo, @susanjakes, and @SegalWilliams for facilitating the discussion! https://t.co/PSZuqLTXvL
