President Joe Biden says, US forces would defend Taiwan in event of Chinese invasion

US President Joe Biden said on Sunday that US forces would defend Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion.

 

 Biden made the comments during an interview with a news outlet. However, the US President reiterated that the US maintains a One China policy and does not support Taiwan's independence. Meanwhile, a White House official said that US policy toward Taiwan has not changed. A visit to Taipei by US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi last month has lead to increased tensions between Beijing and Washington over Taiwan.
