BEIJING (AP) — President Donald Trump says he’s not yet made a decision on whether a major sale of U.S. arms to Taiwan can move forward following his three-day visit to China. The president spoke to reporters Friday as he flew back on Air Force One. Trump’s Republican administration has authorized the sale, but it has yet to proceed. Some Republicans in Congress expressed displeasure at the president’s comments on weapons to Taiwan. China opposes the deal and has suggested that Washington’s relationship with the self-governing island is the key factor in China-U.S. relations. Trump also says he raised a potential three-way nuclear deal involving the U.S., Russia and China.
