A former Kuomintang party legislator has described Tsai Ing-wen's so called stopover in the United States as a disappointment. The Taiwan region's leader passed through New York last week on her way to Central America. It's reported Tsai may meet with U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on her return and the meeting has not been officially confirmed. The trip comes after Honduras formally cut ties with Taiwan to establish diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China. This shows international support for Taiwan is waning, former KMT legislator Joanna Lei told CGTN.
