Thus far, the US has tried to allow for this evolution by stressing two bright lines: no independence for Taiwan and no use of force by China. But, given the danger of incidents that could grow out of political competition in Taiwan or growing impatience in the Peoples’ Liberation Army on the mainland, the US would be wise to encourage more active contacts and negotiations by the two sides.
目前为止，美国试图强调两点来允许局势演进，也就是台湾不独立以及中国不动武。但是，由于台湾政治竞争或者大陆解放军越发不耐烦而可能引发的事件的危险性，美国鼓励两岸更积极的接触和谈判应该是明智的。
