WikiLeaks website of a U.S. Institute in Taiwan (AIT) telegram that since the unofficial end-users that get sloppy, the Chinese mainland is Taiwan's high-tech industry needs the sole provider of chemical raw materials, parts or raw materials prohibited Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) of pipe products, the lack of external control, the development of chemical and biological weapons, Taiwan may become a potential national, Beijing monopoly supply of raw materials, will be able to get Taiwan to threaten the United States in the future high-tech products.

The United States also worry that even if Taiwan does not develop chemical weapons, the Chinese mainland through this vulnerability, unauthorized users of third countries or the output of chemical raw materials help to curb the proliferation of chemical weapons.
