WASHINGTON (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 04th January, 2023) The United States and Taiwan will hold trade negotiations in Taipei from January 14-17, the American Institute in Taiwan said in a press release on Wednesday.

"The United States and Taiwan, under the auspices of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United States (TECRO), will hold an in-person negotiating round for the US-Taiwan Initiative on 21st-Century Trade in Taipei, Taiwan, from January 14-17, 2023," the release said.

The US-Taiwan Initiative on 21st-Century Trade was launched by the two countries last June to develop concrete ways to deepen their economic and trade relationship.
