台湾在亚利桑那州设立新办事处,深化台美经贸合作

Quick Look

台湾在亚利桑那州设立新办事处,旨在深化台美经贸伙伴关系。此举背景为台积电在该州投资设厂,带动逾200家半导体供应链企业赴美,形成产业聚集区。

Why It Matters

台积电在亚利桑那州投资建厂,吸引大量台湾供应链企业跟进。美国与台湾无正式外交关系,但保持紧密的非官方合作。

台湾此前在美国设有驻美国台北经济文化代表处和12个“台北经济文化办事处”(Taipei Economic and Cultural Office, TECO)。本次台湾在亚利桑那州设立办事处的背景是,芯片制造商台积电正在那里投资2650亿美元建厂。台湾外交部表示,新办事处标志着“台美经贸伙伴关系的一个里程碑”,双方将在互信的基础上,深化台美之间“互利共生”的伙伴关系。

美国同台湾没有正式的外交关系,中国声称对台湾拥有主权,但华盛顿一直以来是台湾最重要的国际伙伴和武器供应方。设在华盛顿特区的驻美国台北经济文化代表处为总代表处,相当于大使馆,处理台湾与美国之间的双边政治、经济、军事和文化等高层交流等工作。驻纽约等各地办事处在运作上相当于领事馆,为当地民众和侨民办理护照续发、文件证明、签证咨询以及急难救助等领务。

2020年,台积电宣布赴亚利桑那州投资设厂后,台湾半导体供应链上超过200家企业陆续赴美设厂,或者设立营运公司,那里正逐步形成产业聚集区以及生活社区。

台湾高层官员经常非正式出访美国,但现任总统赖清德尚未在特朗普总统第二个任期开始后进行此类访问。本次林佳龙访美前,也是先在中美洲逗留后才抵达亚利桑那。

今年5月特朗普访问北京后,一项价值140亿美元的对台军售案暂被搁置,美方认为这是同北京较量中不错的“谈判筹码”。中国一直要求美国停止对台出售武器,上月,习近平在华府会晤特朗普后,美国总统表示,中方了解他在台湾问题上的立场。

Open Questions

  • 赖清德未来是否会访美?
  • 搁置的对台军售案后续进展如何?
