Looks like we might have to defend them from Chinese aggression. We would have to get involved if China were to invade Taiwan or use some other tactic to harm their continued existence as a free, sovereign nation. But we couldn't do it alone. We would have to have backup, and even then it would be a scary operation. I hope there's a way to use diplomacy to solve the issue with Taiwan, but China is pretty stubborn on the issue. It doesn't look good.
