US lawmakers wave from inside a bus as they leave the Ministry of National Defense in Taipei yesterday. China’s Taiwan Affairs Office spokeswoman Zhu Fenglian yesterday voices China’s objection to a visit by US lawmakers to Taiwan. Su — who is director of the institute’s Division of Defense Strategy and Resources — was a speaker at a defense ministry news conference on Tuesday, at which it released a national defense report. These signals demonstrate that Washington’s policy toward Taiwan has moved from “strategic ambiguity” toward “strategic clarity,” he said, but added that the government cannot reveal too much about the delegation’s itinerary at this time. The visit can be viewed as an attempt to boost Taiwan-US cooperation in military affairs, Su said.
