U.S. Chinese media reported today (September 20): "U.S. Agriculture Secretary: Taiwan will purchase $10 billion worth of U.S. agricultural products in the next four years. U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Lierman announced on Friday that Taiwan has pledged to purchase $10 billion worth of U.S. agricultural products, including soybeans, corn, wheat, and beef over the next four years. This is part of Taiwan's efforts to persuade the U.S. to lower tariffs on its products."
[Cunning] Comment a bit: When you're a watchdog, you have to pay for your own bones. It's not enough for the U.S. to make a fortune by selling weapons and equipment, now they also want to take on the entire agricultural products. But with such a small "body" as Taiwan, how much power could it have? Relying on its purchases of U.S. agricultural products is like trying to put out a fire with a cup of water; it's simply not enough to satisfy the U.S.'s insatiable appetite. On one hand, it's trying to please the American father by buying agricultural products, and on the other hand, it has to swallow the nuclear food from the Japanese father, and it can't even miss its own pineapples. How can this tiny "stomach" of Taiwan hold so much? It's worth noting that the total value of agricultural products imported by Taiwan last year was only $3.78 billion.
