Transactional Taiwan grand bargain

The article describes a U.S. executive entertaining a transactional deal that would tacitly accept a revisionist power’s territorial aims (land-for-peace in Ukraine), mirroring the logic of leveraging a personalist, deal-focused U.S. diplomacy to secure acquiescence to sovereignty changes—here applied to Russia–Ukraine rather than PRC–Taiwan.

Wei Leijie’s proposal for a 'once-in-a-century' deal with Trump explicitly frames such a bargain.
