WASHINGTON, April 8 – RIA Novosti. The United States is prepared to consider sending its military to Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion, said Michael McCall, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. “If China invades Taiwan, that option will be on the agenda, will be discussed by Congress and the American people, are they ready, is Taiwan worth it,” McCall said in an interview with FoxNews. If the American people support the use of American forces to defend the island, he said, Congress will follow. McCall has been in Taiwan with a delegation of US lawmakers since Wednesday. The visit follows a meeting in California between Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy and Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen. At a press conference following those talks, McCarthy was asked if the United States was prepared to send troops to Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion, saying he never wanted to have to answer the question. China traditionally reacts negatively to foreign contacts from Taiwanese administration officials, viewing the island as its province. Washington urges Beijing to refrain from excessive retaliation.
