Update, Wednesday, 10 Am Pt: White House spokesperson Jen Psaki said that the U.S. is not discussing a potential boycott of the 2022 Winter Olympics in China.
“Our position on the 2022 Olympics has not changed,” she said. “We have not discussed, and are not discussing any joint boycott with allies and partners.”
But media outlets jumped on remarks made by State Department Spokesman Ned Price on Tuesday, in which he indicated that a boycott was “something that we certainly wish to discuss” with allies.
“That it is certainly something that we understand that a coordinated approach will be not only in our interests but also in the interests of our allies and partners,” he said.
Later, on Twitter, Price clarified that “2022 remains a ways off, but we will continue to consult closely with allies and partners to define our common concerns and establish our shared approach to” China.
