The Pentagon, through Undersecretary of Defense Elbridge Colby, has asked Japan and Australia to clarify their involvement in the event of a US-China conflict over Taiwan. The request was unexpected given that the US does not offer an absolute defense guarantee for Taiwan. In the context of increasing military pressure from China on the island, Colby, known for his strategic vision, emphasizes the importance of focusing the US military on competition with China.
