's foreign ministry spokesperson, thanked Biden for using the talks with Xi to"once again publicly express the United States' firm support for maintaining peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and its commitment to Taiwan's security."
"As a responsible member of the Indo-Pacific's democratic camp, and in this critical moment when authoritarian regimes are blatantly challenging the international order, Taiwan will continue to actively strengthen its self-defense capabilities, deepen the Taiwan-U.S. security partnership, and work closely with like-minded countries to jointly resist the threat of authoritarianism," she said.
"I made it clear that we want to see cross-strait issues peacefully resolved, so it never has to come to that," Biden said."And I'm convinced that [Xi] understood exactly what I was saying. I understood what he was saying."
