.@WHO, what's wrong with you? First you called us "Taiwan, China," then you changed to "Taipei." You misreported the confirmed cases, & now you call us "Taipei & Environs." Look! Taiwan is #Taiwan & not any part of the #PRC. JW
#PRC officials say they care about our health as if we're blood relatives. But while #Taiwan is dealing with #COVID19 originating from #Wuhan, their cyber warriors are waging war to disrupt our efforts. So this is epidemic fighting with Chinese characteristics. I'm speechless. JW

Today #Hongkongers once again took to the streets to rescue the city’s eroding freedom🗽 Will the #FreeWorld listen to our cries and stand up against #China? #FreeHongKong and impose sanctions against #PRC 🇨🇳 #StandWithHongKong
Our men & women in uniform are committed to protecting #Taiwan. And this is my response to the #PRC military threat:
Taiwan’s Air Force does not give in to threats or military provocation. Our men and women in uniform have the will & ability to defend #Taiwan & are not intimidated by #PRC intrusions in our airspace. We are dedicated to maintaining peace & stability in the region.

Foreign Secretary @DominicRaab confirms to UK #IPAC that @GOVUK is open to considering sanctions against #HongKong officials. Also confirms an emerging international strategy for dealing with the #PRC. twitter.com/MPIainDS/statu…
Please consider immediate actions to address the aggressive actions of PRC on #HongKong! #PRC assumes that it can do whatever it likes if the democratic world lets it. Thank you @StateDept for taking a stance in the #FightForFreedom! twitter.com/StateDeptSpox/…
#Taiwan🇹🇼 is a sovereign & independent country that has never been ruled by the #PRC. Contrary claims are out of sync with reality. They only steel the resolve of the people to defend Taiwan's freedom, democracy & status as a partner in prosperity & force for good in the world.
Following a series of military threats, the #PRC is weaponizing trade by announcing an immediate ban on #Taiwan's custard & wax apples. This hostile move violates international trade norms! #China wants to join the high-standard #CPTPP? Is this a joke? JW
Oct. 1 wasn't a good day. The #PLAAF flew 38 warplanes into #Taiwan's ADIZ, making it the largest number of daily sorties on record. Threatening? Of course. It's strange the #PRC doesn't bother faking excuses anymore. JW (📸 via @MoNDefense)
A total of 27 #PLA aircraft intruded into our ADIZ today. The #PRC coercive action is obviously meant to bring #Taiwan to its knees & keep us away from democratic partners. But make no mistake: We'll never bow to #CCP pressure. Never, never, never! JW twitter.com/MoNDefense/sta…
Glad to meet with @DSakaliene in person, a fellow victim of #PRC sanctions. We're thinking about starting a coalition of those sanctioned by #China to broaden international cooperation in safeguarding freedom & democracy against authoritarianism. JW
Bravo @palkisu, "If #Beijing hits us, rest assured we're doing something right." Thank you & @WIONews for telling the TRUTH about #Taiwan, while the communists are incapable of handling it. Bottom line: The #PRC doesn't rule over Taiwan; not for a single day. JW twitter.com/WIONews/status…
Military threats & diplomatic assaults by the #PRC on #HumanRightsDay put #Taiwan smack on the front line against authoritarian expansionism. But the PRC won't bend our will as a democracy. We'll continue to live free, stand tall & shine like a beacon. JW twitter.com/MoNDefense/sta…
Holy cow! We've got a #PRC dictatorship lecturing #Taiwan on how to be a real democracy & instructing us on what to do in referendums. I'm lost for words. But I bet the Twitterverse knows good ways of describing #Beijing. JW news.cgtn.com/news/2021-12-1…
Despite #China's attempts to interfere in #Taiwan's referendums via disinformation & influence operations, the people voted & showed resilience. This is what I've been saying: Democracy will prevail! The #PRC should try its own elections rather than fooling around with others. JW twitter.com/MOFA_Taiwan/st…
After the Ortega regime ordered #Taiwan out of #Nicaragua before #Christmas, we sold the embassy to Managua Archdiocese for $1. This charitable act was our goodwill to the people. But Ortega seized the property & will gift it to the #PRC. This is unlawful & utterly disgusting. JW twitter.com/AP/status/1475…
Thank you @KishiNobuo for taking a firm line with the #PRC's military chief, whose #PLA is increasing its threats & coercion in the #Taiwan Strait, & East & South #China Seas. We'll keep working with friends & partners to defend #IndoPacific peace, stability & the status quo. JW twitter.com/KishiNobuo/sta…
More savage attacks on media outlets daring to report the news—just another day in the #PRC's #HongKong! The erosion of press freedom under the #NationalSecurityLaw is a disgrace & sends a clear message: #Beijing is a true enemy of freedom. JW bbc.com/news/world-asi…
We applaud @SecBlinken, @JY_LeDrian, @ABaerbock & @trussliz for showing solidarity with #Lithuania in the face of escalating political pressure & economic coercion by the #PRC & rejecting those practices. Unity is key to resisting autocracy! 🇹🇼🇱🇹🇺🇸🇫🇷🇩🇪🇬🇧state.gov/secretary-blin…
This is without doubt the most despicable statement of the year. The #PRC is literally saying to #Taiwan🇹🇼: Everything you own belongs to #China. Watch out! This is the government the world is dealing with. It will rob you blind the way it's robbing our property in #Nicaragua. twitter.com/MFA_China/stat…
Thank you @AmbassadorTai for leading trans-Atlantic support of #Lithuania in the face of #PRC coercion. #Taiwan is also sparing no effort to back the brave #Baltic state in defeating authoritarianism. Democracy must prevail! JW twitter.com/AmbassadorTai/…
Spot on, @DSakaliene! #Taiwan & #Lithuania share the same sacred rights. You & I also share the same vision of keeping the world free from authoritarianism. We'll fight side by side for our people & to hold the honor of both being sanctioned by the #Communist #PRC. JW twitter.com/DSakaliene/sta…
Glad to stop by & say hi as NDC Minister Kung, @ArmonaiteA & @TW_in_LT Rep. Huang work hard for #Taiwan & #Lithuania. They're showing the need for cooperation & unity among democracies in countering #PRC coercion. Keep fighting for the free world! JW
Delighted to accompany @iingwen in seeing my great friend @EdFeulner & receiving a copy of the @Heritage 2022 Index of Economic Freedom. #Taiwan is free economically & politically. We'll fiercely defend our way of life against expanding #PRC authoritarianism. JW
