US cancels Taiwan visit of ambassador to UN Kelly Craft (2021/01/13)
Washington has canceled the Taiwan visit of its ambassador to the U.N., Kelly Craft. Just hours before her scheduled departure, the U.S. state department announced that all official trips it arranged for this week would be canceled, as part of its efforts to ensure a smooth presidential transition. Craft was scheduled to arrive Wednesday and to call on President Tsai Ing-wen the next day.
The Presidential Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have released statements conveying regret but also respect for Washington's decision. Former President Ma Ying-jeou remarked publicly on the cancellation, calling it "understandable" and "unsurprising."

確保政權交接順利 克拉夫特訪台緊急取消
原定周三訪台的，美國駐聯合國大使克拉夫特，不來了。國務院宣布為確保政權交接順利，取消8天內所有訪問行程，包括：包括國務卿蓬佩奧的歐洲行，以及克拉夫特的台灣行。
總統府和外交部發聲明，強調尊重美方決定，對於克拉夫特大使因而無法如期訪台也感到惋惜，期待克拉夫特未來能在適當時機來訪。至於，堅決反對克拉夫特訪台的國民黨、前總統馬英九則說，可以理解、不意外。
