Taiwan, though not a US ally, is also on the minds of Americans. An
increasing minority of Americans say they would support sending US troops to
defend Taiwan if it were invaded by China (41%). The proportion of Americans
supporting the use of American troops in Taiwan’s defense has been on a
steady rise since 2014, when only a quarter of Americans (26%) supported
defending Taiwan with US troops. (See Appendix Figure 2). However, there are
limits to American support for Taiwan: the 2019 Chicago Council Survey found
that a majority of Americans opposed selling arms to Taiwan (61%, vs. 34%
support), a key aspect of US-Taiwan relations.

Poll Shows Increase in American Support for Defending Taiwan(2020-10-23)
U.S. public support for Taiwan’s defense – as evidenced by a recent CSIS
study – is also critical to deterring Chinese military action.

Annual surveys conducted by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs (CCGA)
consistently show tepid enthusiasm for Taiwan’s defense among the American
public. The recently released 2020 poll revealed that a mere 41 percent of
Americans backed military action were China to invade Taiwan. Although hardly
a ringing endorsement, these results show the highest level of support for
Taiwan’s defense since CCGA first posed the question to the public in 1982.
