In this Wednesday, March 27, 2019 photo released by the Taiwan Presidential Office, Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen toasts during a banquet in Honolulu, Hawaii. Speaking during the visit to Hawaii on Wednesday, Tsai said requests have been submitted to the U.S. for F-16V fighters and M1 Abrams tanks. If approved, the move could set off new tensions between the U.S. and China, which considers Taiwan its own territory to be annexed by force if necessary. (Taiwan Presidential Office via AP) **FILE**
