Democratic Progressive Party Chairman Hsu Hsin-liang argues that the fact that Clinton chose an informal, non-diplomatic setting to openly state the "three no's" shows that the US did not want to unduly emphasize the political significance of the policy, and that it simply represents an extension of long term US policy.
民進黨主席許信良亦指出：柯林頓選擇在座談會而非正式外交場合說出三不政策，顯示美國無意加重三不政策政治上的重要性，而只是美國長期一個政策的延伸。
