The end of our relations with Solomon Islands reflects China’s unceasing efforts to lure away our allies, damage the morale of the Taiwanese people, & force us to accept "one country, two systems.” To this, the people of #Taiwan say: not a chance. english.president.gov.tw/NEWS/5843
ソロモン諸島との外交関係の終焉が示すのは、中国が絶えず台湾を国際的に孤立させようとしているという事実です。それによって台湾の人々の勇気をくじき、「一国二制度」を受け入れさせようとしているのです。われわれの答えは明快です:断じて受け入れません。

It was a distinct pleasure to meet with members of the @taiwanappg from the @UKHouseofLords today. #Taiwan & the #UK already have dialogue mechanisms to promote cooperation on strategic issues, & we look forward to forging even closer trade & investment ties.
We regret Kiribati’s decision to abandon our true friendship & become China’s pawn. China’s continued oppression of #Taiwan is an attempt to influence the upcoming election, but it only strengthens our determination to preserve our sovereignty & democracy. bit.ly/2msBUDb
On the 20th anniversary of the 921 Earthquake in #Taiwan, we take a moment to honor victims & thank first responders for their courage. #IslandOfResilience
本日は、台湾中部の921大地震から20年です。日本から多くの支援をいただいたことは、今も我々の心に深く刻み込まれています。東日本大震災時、台湾人が被災地を支援したのは、20年前の日本の支援に勇気づけられたからです。今日は改めて心から感謝の気持ちを伝えます。「ありがとう!日本!」

#Taiwan’s future was on display today as we unveiled our 1st domestically developed advanced jet trainer. I’m proud that we now have the advanced aerospace R&D and design capabilities to contribute to regional stability, defend our sovereignty, & determine our own future.
I had the pleasure of meeting with Chairman Christian Frigast of EKF, Denmark’s Export Credit Agency, where I thanked EKF for their contributions to offshore wind in #Taiwan. #Denmark is a wind energy powerhouse, & together we are working to achieve the #GlobalGoals.
