The renewed U.S. interest in the Asia-Pacific gives Taiwan a perfect chance to bolster ties and its own security. But will it seize the moment?

Britain should rethink its support for the one-China policy, argues Lord Richard Faulkner. China should drop its claims to the island.

The Republic of China maintains sweeping claims to the South China Sea. But is it needlessly alienating much-needed potential friends?

AirSea Battle shouldn’t only be about the United States. Working closely with Taiwan could pay dividends and help ensure a stable military balance in the Asia-Pacific.
