US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said the United States opposed Taiwan's bid to join the United Nations at a year-end press conference. She called the referendum a "provocative policy" that "unnecessarily raises tensions in Taiwan Strait and it promises no real benefits" for the people of Taiwan on the international stage.
