Former British Prime Minister Liz Truss called for a Cold War-style “economic NATO” to counter the Chinese regime’s economic dominance during a visit to Taipei on Wednesday.

She also urged “all free nations” to back the self-governing republic’s freedom, drawing the ire of Beijing, which claims sovereignty over the island.
