Biden says he and Xi have agreed to abide by Taiwan agreement amid tensions
|
[FoxNews] Beijing sent a record 145 fighter jets into Taiwan’s air defense zone for four consecutive days over the weekend and Taiwanese officials have warned of the possibility of a misfire or a war between the two countries, BBC News reported.
Biden was seemingly referring to the U.S.’ longstanding "one China" policy, meaning the White House doesn’t officially recognize Taiwan’s sovereignty and the 1979 Taiwan Relations Act, which allows for non-diplomatic relations between the U.S. and Taiwan and obligates the U.S. to help the island maintain its self-defense against China.
The act is predicated on China being peaceful toward Taiwan, according to Reuters.
The U.S. also reportedly reassured the Taiwan Foreign Ministry that its commitment to the island was "rock solid" after Taiwan reached out for clarification.
Taiwan separated from mainland China in 1949 and considers itself a sovereign country while Beijing thinks of it as a breakaway province that could be annexed by force if necessary.
