The signing of a trade pact between Taiwan and the United States will play a key role in helping the island counter its diplomatic isolation from China, according to Taiwan’s top trade negotiator.

Taipei has described the initiative as the most comprehensive trade agreement between the United States and Taiwan since Washington switched diplomatic recognition to Beijing in 1979. The agreement will allow Taipei to demonstrate its track record in following international trade rules, which will help enable future trade deals with other advanced economies, John Deng told CNN in an interview. “Our message is that Taiwan is a reliable trading partner.

Deng says the US-Taiwan trade agreement could pave the way for the island to join the CPPTT, though he also admitted that mainland China could use its economic influence to block some members from considering Taiwan’s application. “I will say we have a good chance,” he said. “The message we pass to [these countries] is we want to follow the rule, and our track record is very clear. Please give us a chance.” China has already signaled its opposition towards Taiwan’s application.
