（中央社华盛顿17日综合外电报导）美国官员指出，川普政府正在起草一项对台湾新的大型军售案，可能包括先进火箭系统及反舰飞弹，这项军售案料将触怒北京当局。
这名官员在美国国务卿提勒森（Rex Tillerson）前往北京访问前夕告诉路透社记者，这项军售案规模料将明显大于奥巴马政府卸任前叫停的军售案。
这名官员指出，川普政府希望继续进行这项军售，但预料将花费数月时间或可能延续至明年，因白宫需克服许多障碍。
由于新的军售初步作业尚未公布而要求匿名的官员表示，在川普政府填补国安职务之际，这项军售过程可能以缓慢速度进行。
路透社报道，根据台北知情人士，川普政府和台湾已就此展开讨论。
白宫则对此拒绝置评。1060318
[ The Trump administration is crafting a big new arms package for Taiwan that could include advanced rocket systems and anti-ship missiles to defend against China, U.S. officials said, a deal sure to anger Beijing.
The package is expected to be significantly larger than one that was shelved at the end of the Obama administration, the officials told Reuters on the eve of a visit to Beijing by U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.
"The political desire is there to do a substantial sale," one administration official said, adding that internal deliberations had begun on a deal "that's much stronger, much more significant than the one that was not accepted by the Obama people." ]
