美国圣迭戈加州大学全球冲突与合作研究中心博士后研究员詹姆斯·李(James Lee)同样不认为拜登在谋求“一中一台”政策。
他在接受美国之音采访时说，“我不认为拜登政府在寻求‘一个中国，一个台湾’政策。拜登政府在做的是试图以‘一个中国’政策来适应台湾海峡日益加剧的紧张。话虽如此，我认为这个政策的界线是什么仍然存在混淆，拜登政府寻找及界定那些界线的做法制造了一个误解，以为美国现在在支持‘一个中国，一个台湾’政策。”

What is the best way to mitigate the impact of disinformation? Disinformation is difficult to detect, deter, and combat. Taiwan has been developing a coordinated response to disinformation campaigns from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) since 2018, following attempts to influence results of the 2018 mid-term elections and the suicide of Taiwan diplomat Su Chii-cherng.

Questions about Taiwan’s status are fueling rising tensions between the island and China, and between China and the U.S. Will there be war in the Taiwan Straits? Why is Taiwan important to the United States and might the Biden administration revise U.S. policy towards Taiwan? In the latest episode of the Talking Policy podcast, James Lee, a postdoctoral research associate at the UC Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation, weighs in on Taiwan’s future.
Tensions are growing in the Taiwan Strait. Chinese warplanes have violated Taiwan’s Air Defense Identification Zone in record numbers, prompting fears of an invasion and leading some to ask whether the United States should change its One-China policy. In this policy brief, IGCC postdoctoral research associate James Lee explains what the One-China policy is and shows how it can be both flexible and stable.
