The Taiwan Relations Act is more than just a policy. It’s a commitment to the values of freedom & democracy. Terrific to celebrate a new chapter of #Taiwan-#US relations with AIT Chairman Moriarty, Director Christensen, @SpeakerRyan, & @RepEBJ.

I launched #NewSouthboundPolicy 3 years ago because I saw so much untapped potential for #Taiwan to play a bigger role in the development of our region. Today the policy has borne fruit & set up a stage for Taiwan & NSP countries to work even closer together in the future.

Great that @mohamed_hagi braved #China's pressure to arrive in Taiwan. We thank @WHNSC for commending #Taiwan-#Somaliland ties. The fact "sovereignty & friendship aren’t for sale" deserves international recognition. JW twitter.com/AmbMohamedHagi…

It was a pleasure to gather with good friends from the diplomatic community for the 198th anniversary of #CentralAmerican independence. As a #TrueFriend, #Taiwan follows through on its commitments, & is always looking for ways to contribute to the international community.

Seeing smiles on people’s faces & hope in their eyes is one of the best parts of my job as President. The 2019 @UN @HappinessRpt ranks #Taiwan the happiest in East Asia for two years in a row, & moves us up a spot this year to 25th in the world, a recognition of my team’s efforts

3⃣️Undermining Peace
4⃣️Meddling in China's Internal Affairs
5⃣️Political Manipulation
6⃣️Abusing Power for Selfish Purposes

I remember the passing of Nylon Deng 29 years ago. Nylon was a freedom fighter & a helmsman in #Taiwan's road to #democracy.

Freedom, democracy & human rights are universal values. Unfortunately, not everyone agrees. #Taiwan🇹🇼 stands shoulder to shoulder with @AndersFoghR, @AoDemocracies & other like-minded partners around the world in staring down bullies & battling to build better tomorrows for all. twitter.com/AndersFoghR/st…
