Abstract

The article is devoted to a topical issue - the role of Taiwan in the growing confrontation between the United States and Japan and China for influence in the APR. It is noted that Washington and Tokyo intend to further obstruct the reunification of Taiwan with the PRC, which would seriously strengthen China's position in the Pacific Ocean. Under D. Trump's administration, the United States has noticeably stepped up support for Taiwan, both in the sphere of expanding Taipei's official ties, and in supplying it with American weapons. On the whole, a line developed by Washington and Tokyo (and agreed with Taipei) to consolidate Taiwan's de facto independent existence is emerging. Beijing, however, clearly states that it will apply the necessary means in order to defend the territorial integrity of the PRC within the framework of the adopted concept of "one country, two systems."

KeywordsTaiwan, the course of Washington and Tokyo, consolidation of Taiwan's de facto independent existence, Beijing's reaction
