RAMASWAMY: "Our interests include Taiwan until we have achieved semiconductor independence. After 2028, after the end of my first term, we will be in a position to say our commitments will be different. Xi Jinping will not go for Taiwan until the end of my first term."
(...)
RAMASWAMY: "That commitment is only as far as 2028, by which point I will have led the United States of America to achieve semiconductor independence. And we will not take the risk of war that risks American lives after that, for some nationalistic dispute between China and Taiwan."
(...)
RAMASWAMY: "We need to be clear that we will defend Taiwan. That’s different from strategic ambiguity now. We have to defend Taiwan until we achieve semiconductor independence, at which point we resume our current posture."
