The Biden Administration's Statements on Strategic Ambiguity

The Biden administration has been quite consistent that it still maintains the U.S. One China policy, but at the same time there have been questions about whether strategic ambiguity remains U.S.'s policy. President Biden on four occasions seemed to endorse what we would call strategic clarity, saying that if China attacked Taiwan, he would respond and defend Taiwan. So, my own view is that we shouldn't view President Biden's statements as gaffes. I think that he fully understands the implications of what he says.
