House Foreign Affairs Committee chairman Rep. Michael McCaul said the US may send troops to Taiwan should China invade the self-governed island.
“If communist China invaded Taiwan, it would certainly be on the table and something that would be discussed by Congress and with the American people,”“Are they prepared to do this? Is Taiwan worth it? I can argue for a lot of reasons why it is.”
“[To deploy troops,] you’re talking about an authorized use of military force that would come out of my committee or a declaration of war, which we haven’t utilized since World War II,” McCaul said during a three-day trip to Taipei at the head of a congressional delegation. “The future of Taiwan lies in China’s reunification, and the wellbeing of the people in Taiwan hinges on the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,” she added.
US military leaders have said Beijing could invade Taiwan by 2027 – though some, such as Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Mike Gilday, have saidUS support for Taiwan has grown over the past several years as China expands its global ambitions.“It’s how the Chinese behave and what they do,” Gilday said in October at an Atlantic Council event.
