During a televised debate with former President Trump, President Biden expressed willingness to assist in Taiwan's defense against potential Chinese aggression, while Trump chose not to make a clear statement. The discussion among opinion columnists in the Washington Post revolved around the question of whether the U.S. would intervene if China attacks Taiwan. While Biden has promised assistance, details remain unclear. Analysts suggest that Trump sees Taiwan as a bargaining chip in negotiations with China. Trump's vague stance may be intentional, as he believes clarity could limit his options. There are contrasting views on Trump's possible Taiwan policy in a potential second term, with his former national security advisor suggesting Taiwan should increase defense spending and military recruitment to receive more U.S. support.
