Lies & false territorial claims are textbook authoritarian expansionism. They can also be a prelude to war as in the case of #Ukraine. While #China continues its unlimited cooperation with #Russia, #Taiwan's people stand ready to defend our democratic way of life. JW twitter.com/Reuters/status…

安倍晋三元首相が亡くなられて１年が経ちました。彼は先見性を持った政治家であり、台湾にとって真の友人でした。その遺志を貫徹することは、彼を追悼する最良の方法です。我々は台日関係の深化、民主主義の価値の追求に取り組み、真の意味で自由で開かれたインド太平洋を創造することを約束します。 twitter.com/MOFA_Taiwan/st…

Goliath = bullies like #China & #Russia; David = moral giants like #Taiwan & #Lithuania. We, the forces for good, won’t shy away from the values we hold close to our hearts despite threats & coercion. BTW, I’m sanctioned for life but many here are super jealous.😉 JW twitter.com/LRsusisiekimas…

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…

Watch this short film on how #Taiwan gave Theodore D. Nelson a 2nd chance. Immense pain caused by spine & hip problems stole the #Guam native's sleep & mobility. #HealthCare professionals at CMU Hospital in #Taichung worked wonders & have him looking up again. Yes! #TaiwanCanHelp
