    Yeah, this is a very disturbing policy they’re pushing. It’s worth noting that a change in posture is itself a provocation. Currently, US has a one China policy on paper at least. Strategic clarity would mean abandoning this policy. So, that would be the provocation that could trigger China to take action. And as far as I know, the Atlantic Council does indeed reflect the views of the permanent bureaucracy in US.
