Acheson Kept Silent on Formosa Policy Debate
In testimony to Senate committees, Dean Acheson and President Truman discussed 1949 U S policy toward Formosa. Acheson cited government agreement that no aid short of armed intervention could save Formosa from the Communists and that Formosa was strategically unimportant to U S defense. He noted the aim to minimize damage to U S prestige if Formosa fell and explained the decision to withhold certain details in a document still widely discussed.
