    if it’s ambiguous, how can they recognize it as part of China at the same time? That’s the opposite of ambiguous.

      Yeah, it’s not actually very ambiguous. It’s more confusing than ambiguous.

      If you ask if the government in Taipei is the legitimate government of China, the USA will say no.

      If you ask if Taiwan is an independent country, the USA will say no.

      But if you ask if Taiwan is part of China, the USA will avoid answering, even though that’s the only option left.
