It’s good that China and the US keep up the communication. However, I would like to see an US version of this: Did Biden really “reiterated that the one-China policy of the US has not changed and will not change, and that the US does not support ‘Taiwan independence’.”?
US version of the readout does not provide any details. However, there is absolutely no question of this being what Biden said as this is an official readout of the meeting and US is not contradicting it.
Thanks, I was confused because I thought “not supporting Taiwan independence” means being fine with China annexing Taiwan. In both versions of the readout, Biden wants to keep the status quo in Cross-Strait relations, but this is phrased differently in each readout.
China annexing Taiwan makes as much sense as US annexing Texas. The status quo is that Taiwan is part of China, and that’s the official position US holds as per Potsdam Proclamation that was signed 77 years ago between China, the US & the UK. This position has never officially changed.
