Biden Taiwan policy

As President Biden doubles down on his commitment to defend Taiwan, the discrepancies between Chinese and U.S. interpretations of their foundational diplomatic policies are beginning to show.

The House speaker is reportedly planning a trip to Taiwan in August. China had promised to take “strong measures” in response.

President Biden’s repeated promises to defend Taiwan reflect a shift in U.S. strategic thinking that threatens the bottom line of China-U.S. relations.

The trip came amid a busy diplomatic stretch, including Taiwan-Europe exchanges as well as the Biden-Xi phone call.

Even U.S. presidents apparently need a primer on the U.S. stance on Taiwan’s defense.

Building on the Trump administration's tough line, President Joe Biden and his cabinet have missed no opportunity to reiterate the U.S. commitment to Taipei.

“Strategic ambiguity” is not a policy; it is a tactic. The difference matters.

Increased U.S. support has raised hopes in Taiwan – and some of those expectations may be difficult for Washington to meet.

Deterring Chinese coercion will take a concerted effort across the economic, political, and military fronts.

An unofficial delegation led by former Senator Chris Dodd completed a three-day visit to Taiwan in a show of support from the Biden administration.
