Fox anchor, Ramaswamy clash over Taiwan: ‘They’re not just a factory’

Another proud basket mouth candidate just like Trump is in the block. 

Fox News anchor John Roberts pressed Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy over his views on defending Taiwan from China during an interview .

Ramaswamy has isolated himself from the rest of the GOP primary field on a number of key policy issues, including not supporting continued aide for Ukraine in its war against Russia, and a radical proposal to cede territory taken by Russia in eastern Ukraine in exchange for Moscow ending its military alliance with China.

The tech entrepreneur’s views on Taiwan are another example of his unique agenda.

Roberts confronted Ramaswamy over his stance that America should only support Taiwan because it produces semiconductors.

“You’ve said that you’d fully back Taiwan until the U.S. becomes independent with semiconductors. So what happens after that point? Do we just give Taiwan to China,” Roberts asked.

“Don’t we also support a robust democracy off China’s shores? … They’re not just a factory,” he added.

Ramaswamy pushed back, calling Roberts’s assertion an incorrect characterization of what he has said, saying that he would resume “strategic ambiguity” — a government practice of withholding information on a strategy in foreign policy. In this case, it is related to whether the U.S. military would intervene, and to what extent, in a war across the Taiwan Strait.

“Recall that President Trump was derided by both parties for picking up a phone call from the Taiwanese president. … I’m upgrading to strategic clarity, saying that absolutely we will defend Taiwan until we get semiconductor independence,” Ramaswamy said.

The GOP hopeful also noted the bipartisan embrace of the “one-China policy,” another word for the U.S.’s policy of strategic ambiguity in Taiwan and the position held by the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) that there is only one sovereign state under the name China.

“Both Republicans and Democrats, every other Republican in this race embraces the one-China policy. Strategic ambiguity, refusing to call Taiwan a nation,” Ramaswamy said.
