This morning I am departing for a state visit to one of our closest friends & partners, #Swaziland. It will be an honor to attend the 50/50 celebrations, marking their 50th year of independence, 50th birthday of the King & importantly for us, 50 years of bilateral relations!
Goodbye for now, #Taiwan. Thank you to #ROCAF for escorting us out of Taiwanese airspace
Saddened to hear the passing of former FLOTUS Barbara Bush. She visited Taiwan with Former President George H.W. Bush in 1993 & expressed support for Taiwan. She was an inspiration to all advocating family values & literacy. Our thoughts & prayers are with the Bush family

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

Our thoughts are with the people in #India following the devastating dust storms. If there is anything #Taiwan can do, please do not hesitate to let us know twitter.com/PMOIndia/statu…
