Minister Wu was glad to welcome #US 🇺🇸 #House Representative Lisa McClain, Rep. Dan Kildee & Rep. Mark Alford to #Taiwan 🇹🇼. Discussions with the members of the Committee on Armed Services & the Committee on Ways & Means proved highly productive, furthering collaboration in security & trade.

The #PLAAF encroaches on our #ADIZ & indiscriminately crosses the #Taiwan Strait median line on a daily basis now, while the #PLAN regularly sends multiple warships nearby. The #PRC threat has reached a new level. This expansionist ambition must be curbed. JW

After Route M503, the #PRC activated Routes W122 & W123. The actions violate ICAO rules, endanger air safety, unilaterally change the status quo & threaten #Taiwan security. These gray zone tactics imperil peace & stability. #Beijing should be denounced. JW

#Taiwan Strait stability is crucial for building a free & open #IndoPacific , which serves the interests of all nations that uphold the rules-based order. #Taiwan 🇹🇼 remains committed to working with the #G7 & other like-minded partners to advance these ideals for the common good.

Thank you, Emma Reilly, for speaking out on how the #PRC corrupts the United Nations & the rules-based order. #Taiwan is a known victim of #China ’s wrongdoing, but in reality the whole world suffers. We need this brought up in the #G7 , #EU & other bodies to counter this evil empire. JW

Those #Chinese communists just don’t get it: #Taiwan is a free country & is determined to stay free. If they can’t stand the freedoms of the press & expression, they should steer clear of democracy. Learn to respect #India & the will of Taiwanese people, OK?
