US President Joe Biden suddenly sent a five-member delegation led by Mike Mullen, former
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to Taiwan, in the midst of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, for an about 30 hours stopover. The former Taiwanese legislator Shen Fu-hsiung pointed out
in a Facebook analysis on March 2 that "strategic ambiguity" was considered by many to be
beneficial to Taiwan in the past, but from the experience of Ukraine, it was a big mistake.
Mentioning "strategic clarity" he also said that he believes that "the arrival of the five-member
delegation may be a step in this direction", depending on who they meet in Japan.
