China is spreading disinformation about Taiwan in the United States, Taiwanese Vice President Hsiao Bi-khim said in an interview aired on Dec. 1, telling Americans not to be misled about the self-governing island.

Hsiao, who was Taiwan’s top envoy to the United States from July 2020 to November 2023, made remarks in an interview with Natalie Winters, the co-host of Steven Bannon’s “War Room” podcast. Hsiao has been in her current role since May 2024, after securing victory as Lai Ching-te’s running mate in a general election five months earlier.
