중국 반발에도 미 복지장관 대만 방문... 1979년 단교 후 최고위급
The U.S. health chief arrived in Taiwan on Sunday for a three-day visit,... despite continued objections by China against official contact between Washington and Taipei.
During the visit, which is expected to further irritate Sino-U.S. relations,... U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar is scheduled to sit down with Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen.
This is the first high-level visit by an American official since the U.S. broke off its official ties with Taipei in 1979 in favor of Beijing.
