According to the Lowy Institute Poll 2023, when asked how Australia should respond if China invaded Taiwan,....a strong majority of Australians (76%) say they would support “Australia imposing economic and diplomatic sanctions on China”, two-thirds (64%) would support “Australia sending arms and military supplies to the Taiwanese government”, and six in ten (61%) say they would support “using the Australian Navy to help prevent China from imposing a blockade around Taiwan”. These results highlight the solidarity among democracies in their responses, and also the great concern over the expansion of authoritarianism.
