The U.S. State Department removed a reference to Taiwan's independence from its website, which had previously stated that the U.S. does not support Taiwan's independence. This change was noted on February 17, 2025, and was described by a State Department spokesperson as a routine update to the website's content. The removal of the statement has sparked discussions and concerns about the U.S. policy towards Taiwan, especially in light of ongoing tensions with China. The spokesperson emphasized that there has been no change in the U.S. policy regarding Taiwan, which continues to adhere to the One China policy, acknowledging the Chinese position that there is but one China and Taiwan is part of China, while also maintaining unofficial relations with Taiwan.
