Mr. Trump, in the weeks just after his first election win in 2016, controversially accepted a congratulatory call from then-Taiwanese President Tsai, breaking decades of U.S. diplomatic protocol that was aimed at keeping relations with Beijing cordial.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump&#8217;s transition team said at the time that the presidents had spoken about, &#8220;close economic, political, and security ties,&#8221; which angered Beijing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Up until that point, no U.S. president-elect or sitting president had spoken directly with a Taiwanese leader since 1979, when Washington switched its diplomatic recognition from Taiwan to Communist Party-ruled China during a detente with the Nixon administration.<\/p>\n<h2>Taiwan may have &#8220;a better hand&#8221; with Trump<\/h2>\n<p>While the difference in their personal engagement may be some cause for concern in Taipei, Hsiao, at the Global Taiwan Institute, played down anxiety this week, using Mr. Trump&#8217;s own framing of geopolitics as a game of cards, after he told Zelenskyy that Ukraine, &#8220;does not have the cards&#8221; to make demands for U.S. security guarantees.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Taiwan does have a better hand in terms of what it can offer to the United States in terms of a reciprocal bilateral relationship,&#8221; said Hsiao. &#8220;That remains a robust economic partnership, a strong security relationship and certainly a very critically-important high-tech industry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite its size \u2014 Taiwan covers significantly less ground than West Virginia \u2014 the densely populated island is one of the United States&#8217; top trade partners.
