While Taiwan was in 2022 excluded from the Biden administration's Asia-focused economic plan designed to counter China's growing influence, the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework, or IPEF, Washington instead began talks with Taiwan under the "21st Century" trade initiative. "The question will then become one of political will. And we can see through the USTR's priorities for 2024 released in the first quarter that Taiwan is very high on the agenda," he added, referring to the United States Trade Representative.
