After comments by Donald Trump warning Taiwan against declaring independence, officials in Taipei have pushed back, stressing their democratic system and right to determine their own future.

Beijing, led by Xi Jinping, has long called Taiwan a “red line,” while the U.S. traditionally maintains a delicate balance: supporting Taiwan’s self-defense without formally endorsing independence.
