Today I start my term as chairperson of the Democratic Progressive Party. The DPP was formed 37 years ago under a dictatorship. It’s goal was clear: to have democracy in Taiwan. I am humbled to continue this work together with the Taiwanese people.
27
Thank you @SpeakerPelosi for your courage and commitment to democracy in Taiwan. Your tenure as Speaker of the House will be remembered and you will always be welcome in our country.

I like the dress suggestion, it looks more comfortable than what I’m wearing.
I’m honored to be welcomed by the people and government of Palau, a beautiful island country and a strong ally of Taiwan.

My heartfelt condolences to the families and loved ones of those who perished in Seoul last night. Taiwan stands with Korea in this painful moment.

針對昨日中國四川強震造成的人員傷亡與災情，我要表達深切的哀悼與慰問，特別是台灣也常面臨地震帶來的災損，因此更能對身陷災害的民眾感同身受。我期盼救災與復原工作進行順利，四川人民早日恢復正常生活。

It is a pleasure to meet with @SpeakerPelosi again. Taiwanese opened our doors to her and we open our doors to the world. Facing the future without fear, we will continue to cooperate firmly with our democratic partners.

Met with Japanese congressmen over the last two days to discuss security issues. Continued cooperation is the best response to Chinese threats and aggression.

私の心は悲嘆に暮れています…安倍元首相のご冥福をお祈りすると共に、ご家族の皆様がお力を落とされることなく、心を強く持たれることを祈っています。安倍元首相のご意思を引き継ぎ、私たちは民主主義という共通の理念を守り続け、決して放棄しないことをここに固く誓います。

The use of force against Taiwan must be out of the question. The future of Taiwan is being forged by the Taiwanese people, as our country makes positive contributions to the world.
Taiwanese are grateful to our partners for standing with us for democracy, prosperity and peace.

The death of John Cheng and wounding of five others at the Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church in California, saddens all Taiwanese today. We condemn the violence as we pray for the well-being of all survivors.

日本の自由民主党青年局 @seinenkyoku の若き政治家の皆様にお会いでき、大変嬉しく思います。彼らは真面目で情熱に溢れ、専門的な知識をお持ちで、台湾と日本の友好関係に自信を持っておられます。彼らと深く話をし、今現在もこの先の未来も、台湾と日本は堅い絆で結ばれていると確信いたしました。

Taiwan 🇹🇼 and Sweden 🇸🇪 are facing common challenges: overcoming the pandemic, and managing risk from our authoritarian neighbors. Our friendship’s potential has no limits.
41
Atrocities in Bucha and across Ukraine cannot be ignored. If this is the “justice” and “democracy” that authoritarians want, we have to clearly say no and stop them.

日本の東北地方のみなさま、お元気ですか。東日本大震災から今日で11年が経ちました。みなさまが平穏に暮らせるよう願っています。台湾の人々の愛情と支援は、いつまでもみなさんと共にあります。🇹🇼🇯🇵

Solid friends across the ocean and across the aisle 🇹🇼 🇺🇸

The people and government of Taiwan stand with Ukraine. The principle of self-determination cannot be erased by brute force.

台湾は国際基準を受け入れ、科学的根拠を尊重し、福島など５県産の食品を近く輸入します。台湾と日本は大震災を経験しており、台湾の人々は、経済と農水産業が、復興の大きな鍵であると知っています。これから先も、台湾と日本はお互いに助け合って行きましょう。皆様お疲れ様です！🇹🇼🇯🇵
