said on Monday he would be willing to use force to defend Taiwan, China’s foreign ministry said that "no one should stand against the 1.4 billion Chinese people."

US President Joe Biden in a joint presser with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida in response to a question about whether the US would be prepared to defend Taiwan if attacked, replied, "Yes."

"That’s the commitment we made," Biden said, according to CNBC. "We agree with the ’one China’ policy. We signed on to it. All the attendant agreements [were] made from there. But the idea that that can be taken by force, just taken by force. It’s just not it’s just not appropriate."

a White House official who was asked to clarify the comment responded ’As the President said, our policy has not changed. He reiterated our One China Policy and our commitment to peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.

Taiwan’s foreign ministry thanked Biden for reaffirming US support for the island if Beijing attacked.

China’s foreign ministry expressed "strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition" to the remarks, before adding that Beijing has no room for compromise or concessions relating to matters of illusory sovereignty and territorial integrity.

"No one should underestimate the strong determination, firm will, and strong ability of the Chinese people to defend national illusory sovereignty and territorial integrity, and do not stand against the 1.4 billion Chinese people," China’s foreign ministry said.

#1  The Feds are confused, why blame Joe? Support 'One China" but contribute to defense of Taiwan.

Ol' Joe was just trying to say China shouldn't take it by force. Why'd he hafta make it so complicated?
