Recently, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told a news conference that “we think that Taiwan’s referendum to apply to the UN under the name ‘Taiwan’ is a provocative policy. It unnecessarily raises tensions in the Taiwan Strait and it promises no real benefits for the people of Taiwan on the international stage.”
美国无疑对此担忧。最近，美国国务卿莱斯在一个记者会上说，“我们认为台湾的入联公投是一项挑衅性的政策。这一政策毫无必要地加剧台海紧张局势，对台湾人民在国际舞台上没有实际利益”。她还重申布什当局反对“任何一方单方面改变现状的威胁”。
