WASHINGTON -- The U.S. has expanded training provided to the military of Taiwan, sources familiar with the situation have told Nikkei.
The National Guard, a state-based American mlitary force, began training the Taiwanese military some time before spring 2022.
Washington aims to expand the scope of training for Taiwan's military to enhance deterrence against China and deepen the cooperation with the island territory, as National Guard drills for Ukrainian forces contributed to Ukraine's defense against the invasion by the Russian military.
