My comment: It is 6:40 pm EST, Jan 5. Surprisingly US Department of State has not published either the video or transcript of the Daily Press Briefing yet, though it does foretell today's briefing would be conducted by Spokesperson Jen Psaki at 1 pm.


(2) BBC Chinese just had a report titled 北京抗議台灣在美舉行元旦「升旗典禮」.
www.bbc.co.uk/zhongwen/trad/china/2015/01/150105_us_taiwan_flag
("截至BBC中文網記者發稿，華盛頓方面尚未對北京的抗議作出回應")

, which is full of innuendoes, such as  "「台美默契」" and "台美關係「更上層樓」？"(two section headings).

The BBC report also quotes

("歐巴馬政府雖然同意這項具有象徵意義的活動，但仍希望低調，尤其不願見到電視畫面播出引起中方抗議，因此駐美代表處並未邀請媒體出席，而是以事後發新聞稿的方式宣佈此事")
