Claim: The U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar's visit to Taiwan in August 2020 is a breach of international rules.

Q1: Is there a rule banning high ranking US officials from visiting Taiwan?
A1: There is no “international rule” banning high-ranking U.S. officials from visiting Taiwan. While countries have been careful to engage in diplomacy with Taiwan, this restraint has been assumed to be out of courtesy for China, which considers the island part of China and rejects any claim of Taiwanese independence. Unlike the Communist Party-run mainland, Taiwan is a functioning democracy and has held elections since 1987
