美国总统拜登表示，如果中国入侵台湾，美国军队将会保卫台湾。拜登总统在这个问题上最明确的声明，引起了中国的愤怒回应。北京称，这向那些寻求台独的人发出了错误的信号。
在周日（9月18日）哥伦比亚广播公司（CBS）播出的“60分钟”节目的采访中，当被问及美军是否会保卫中国声称拥有主权的台湾时，他回答说：“是的，如果实际上发生了前所未有的攻击。”
当被问及这是否意味着与乌克兰不同，美国军人将在中国入侵的情况下保卫台湾时，拜登回答说：“是的。”
哥伦比亚广播公司的采访，是拜登似乎超越了美国长期以来对台湾政策的最新一次表态；其声明比以前关于派遣美国军队保卫台湾的声明更加清晰。
美国长期以来一直奉行“战略模糊”政策，没有明确表明是否会对台湾遭遇袭击时做出军事回应。
