Most Americans consider China’s military to be a serious problem for the United States and believe that the nation should continue relations with Taiwan regardless of China’s objections, according to a new poll.

Some 86 percent of Americans said that they consider China’s military, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), to be a problem, with 50 percent saying it is a “very serious” problem and 36 percent saying it is a “somewhat serious” problem, per the results of a new poll by the Pew Research Center.
