#China is taking advantage of #Taiwan's free and open democracy to create divisions in our society. But rest assured: We will never compromise on #PressFreedom. NEVER. twitter.com/RSF_eastasia/s…

The political goals of a single country should never be more important than global health security. I strongly condemn #China for trying to deprive #Taiwan’s 23 million people of their right to be part of the #globalhealth security network.

#PressFreedom is the backbone of #Taiwan's democracy. Yet, #China has been using #disinformation to create discord in our society. I cannot allow it! At this critical juncture, my administration is battling to ensure our democratic way of life not only survives, but thrives. twitter.com/RSF_eastasia/s…

We welcome passage of the new #EU-#China relations report by @Europarl_EN. This report calls on EU & member states to reiterate support for #Taiwan's int'l space & urge China from further military provocations. Grateful to EU parliament for shining light to such an impt issue.

"#China's actions to reduce #Taiwan's international space have only deepened our resolve that freedom and democracy, rather than fear, will continue to determine the future of Taiwan’s 23 million people." My remarks to members of @Europarl_EN & #EFTA. youtu.be/XZbGW8geu8E

Cancellation of the 2019 #EastAsianYouthGames on #China's orders isn't acceptable to #Taiwan people. I support #Taichung & the National Olympic Committee in righting this wrong. Global solidarity is needed more than ever, as Taiwan is the canary in the coal mine of China’s rise.

#China’s attempt to block #Taiwan’s int’l participation will only reinforce our determination to play an active & positive role in the world. At this testing time, it’s heartening to see former #US @DeptofDefense #SecDef Ash Carter reaffirm our shared democratic values.

Today, we celebrate the 15th anniversary of the #Taiwan Foundation for #Democracy & reaffirm our determination to ensure that democracy will continue to shape the future of our world. Even though #China tries to undermine our democratic way of life, we will never give in.

The special visit of @SenCoryGardner shows the importance he attaches to #Taiwan. During this difficult time, your staunch support proves that #China’s pressure on us will only rally more friends like you who share the same democratic values to support Taiwan. Thank you!

#China’s growing pressure will only strengthen other countries’ support for us. The 23 countries speaking up for #Taiwan at #WHA71 is a testament to such support. Starting today, our int’l partnership will only grow stronger. We will never back down. bit.ly/2ILuRM2

Today #China led #BurkinaFaso to sever diplomatic relations w/ #Taiwan. It will only bring Taiwan closer to countries that share our values: #democracy & #freedom. It will only strengthen our resolve to look towards the world, rather than across the Strait bit.ly/2KT1IiK

This morning, the Dominican Republic switched diplomatic recognition from #Taiwan to #China. In light of this, I want to make clear: We will continue to safeguard our #freedom & #democracy. We will defend our own national interests. We will never bow to pressure from Beijing
