You people are amazing. We maintain a military base on Taiwan.
Where is it located? I do not know of any on the Island. We do not recognize Taiwan as an independant country, therefore we do not have diplomatic relations with them or an embassy so no Marines are there.
We sure as heck DO have relations with them..and have for a long time. We DO recognize Taiwan as an independent country. For a long time we maintained a subtle pact to defend Taiwan until George W. Bush declared we would respond to any attack by China.
