“Yes, if in fact there was an unprecedented attack,” Biden replied.

The interview was interrupted with a voiceover saying a White House official said after interview that “U.S. policy has not changed” and the government will not officially say whether U.S. troops would intervene in Taiwan, according to the Daily Wire.

A similar situation occurred in May when the president delivered similar remarks in Tokyo.
