Liz Truss, the former UK Prime Minister, will ask Britain's Chancellor, Rishi Sunak, to define China as a “threat” to national security in a speech in Taipei. In her address, Truss is to question Mr Sunak to honour the language he used in last summer's Conservative Party leadership contest when he described China as the “biggest threat” to the UK. Her visit to Taiwan has caused controversy, with senior Tories warning her trip risks undermining Mr Sunak on the world stage and “complicating” the Government’s stance on China.
