COMMENTARY

By Tom McDevitt and Ian Everhart - Thursday, July 2, 2026

OPINION:

As we celebrate America’s Semiquincentennial, we are pleased to present this special section entitled, “Why Taiwan Matters, Now More than Ever” as a sponsored content publication in The Washington Times. This is the first in a series by the Taiwan Freedom Project provided as an educational resource for citizen leaders.

Among our Asian friends, Taiwan uniquely embodies the American ideals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Its 23 million citizens have overcome extraordinary adversity and achieved the near-miraculous: republican self-government, 30 years of democracy, extraordinary prosperity and a free society. Through their hard work, talent, creativity and entrepreneurial genius, the Taiwanese have built their island into an indispensable global center of innovation and technological advancement.

Tragically, Taiwan is threatened like never before by the People’s Republic of China controlled by the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP), whose record of appalling crimes, tyranny, imperial aggression and thwarted human potential is far too long to list here. This CCP threat is only 110 miles across the Taiwan Strait.

We agree with House Select Committee on China Chairman John Moolenaar, who writes for this section, that “now more than ever” we must deter the CCP’s aggression. We believe Taiwan to be the most important geopolitical question facing America and the free world. That is why we have undertaken to launch the
Taiwan Freedom Project and to publish this new series of special sections in English and Mandarin.

Americans and our allies must embrace the full spectrum of statecraft to ensure the next 250 years are defined by peace and freedom. The contributors in the following pages offer profound insights for policymakers and the public alike. This publication is organized into three key areas: 

Why Taiwan Matters, Now More than Ever: We introduce Taiwan’s immense importance for American strategic interests, regional stability, the global economy, technology, public health, human rights and culture.

The Threat and the Consequences: Our experts describe the dangers of complacency in the face of the CCP’s escalating aggression and evolving tactics.
