Washington:
The United States announced Monday that it has approved the $ 2.4 billion sale of 100 Harpoon coastal defense systems to Taiwan, a move that is sure to anger Beijing over the deal. $ 1 billion missiles concluded last week by Washington with the self-managed island.
The proposed sale of the Harpoon systems “will help improve recipient security and help maintain political stability, military, economic balance and progress in the region,” the State Department said in a statement.
