The US approved the sale of F-16 munitions and related equipment worth US$619 million to Taiwan on March 1, 2023. The military package is the first to be approved by the Biden administration in 2023, and the ninth since US President Joe Biden came to power. China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs criticised the sale, which also came ahead of Beijing’s annual meeting of its top legislative and policymaking bodies, where Taiwan is expected to be mentioned in the annual government report.
