Taiwan is exploring a high-tech strategic partnership with the U.S., aiming to boost bilateral investment while seeking to reduce the 20% tariff on its exports. Vice Premier Cheng Li-chiun, leading the talks, expressed optimism on Thursday about reaching a consensus through a “Taiwan model” that focuses on expanding U.S. production capacity without relocating supply chains. She described the model as “industrial investment planning” supported by export credit guarantees and joint development of industrial clusters. Cheng also clarified that a reported 50-50 chip production proposal by U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was “not something Taiwan would agree to” and was never discussed during negotiations.
