US Army Special Forces train Taiwan troops near China’s coast
Specialists from the U.S. Army are training Taiwanese soldiers in what is described as a permanent arrangement rather than on a rotational basis, including on an island just six miles from the Chinese coast, according to a local newspaper. Taiwan's United Daily News (UDN) reported on Sunday that the training regimens were being planned and supervised by the 1st Special Forces Group, an airborne unit, under the provisions of last year's National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which was signed into law in December 2022.
