Biden says US will defend Taiwan if China attacks

 President Joe Biden said the United States will defend Taiwan if China attacks it. It is because they have laws that require it to assist Taiwan in defending itself. The White House spokesman later explained to the media that the U.S. has not announced any policy change, and there is no change in policy. Although the U.S. does not have official diplomatic relations with Taiwan, it does sell arms to Taiwan and says the U.S. must provide Taiwan with the means to defend itself. If China were to take control of Taiwan, it would be a very difficult task for China to maintain control over territory that opposes CCP rule. In some cases, it may be necessary to assemble troops from Australia and Japan as well as U.S. President Xi Jinping is hoping to achieve Taiwan reunification while he leads the country. However, when these factors are added together, it becomes clear how high the risks are.
