From the Paper:

"With the end of Communism China has become the next contestant for a Superpower and a rival of the USA. Never having been on good terms with the US, China is presently riled at the US supply of arms to Taiwan. While US supports the right of Taiwan's independence China contends a one China strategy. Supplying arms to Taiwan is thus, against China. However, US must in a matter of speaking provide arms to Taiwan not only to help in its effort for independence---but also to ensure China does not take aggressive action against Taiwan or any other nation in the future."
