美國前國務卿蓬佩奧（Mike Pompeo）昨天發表公開演說，呼籲美國改變50年來的政策模糊，美國應以外交承認「中華民國台灣」是自由主權國家。外交部對此不評論；前外交官介文汲則認為，蓬佩奧的呼籲相當諷刺，他有權力的時候不這樣做，沒權力的時候叫別人這樣做，實在是自我矛盾。
March 5:
In his public remarks on March 4, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called upon the United States to change its five-decade policy of strategic ambiguity and diplomatically recognize the “Republic of China (Taiwan)” as a free and sovereign country. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) would not comment on this. Ambassador Dale Jieh, a former diplomat, believes that Mr. Pompeo’s appeal is quite ironic. He did not do it when he had the power, but is asking others to do it when he has no power, which is really self-contradictory.
