Taiwan is supporting Ukraine with economic & financial sanctions against Russia as well as by sending medical aid to Ukraine. We're coordinating in lockstep with like-minded partners to further deter Russian aggression. 🇹🇼🇺🇦 #StandWithUkraine️
Today, while visiting #Kaohsiung, I by chance met Ksenia, a young student from #Ukraine. She thanked me for our support, & I assured her that #Taiwan will do whatever we can for Ukraine, a like-minded democratic partner. #StandWithUkraine

.@mikepompeo is a true friend of Taiwan. Taiwan’s international status was elevated because of his leadership as SecState. We had a chance to discuss how democracies can take steps to deter autocrats from taking aggressive actions.
It is my view that the U.S. government should immediately take necessary, and long-overdue, steps to do the right and obvious thing, that is to offer the Republic of China (Taiwan) America’s diplomatic recognition as a free and sovereign country.

Taiwan is #UnitedWithUkraine. 🇹🇼🇺🇦 Russia's unprovoked attack on Ukraine is completely unacceptable. Authoritarian governments are watching this with interest, Taiwan should respond in a united and decisive way with our like-minded allies & partners.

Taiwan is closely monitoring the deteriorating situation in Ukraine. We can't sit on the sidelines while a big power bullies a small neighbour. I'm encouraged to learn that our government is ready to impose economic sanctions on Russia alongside like-minded allies & partners.🇹🇼🇺🇦
NEW: The Biden admin has support from three Asian partners for severe sanctions and export controls against Russia. Singapore, Japan, and Taiwan have signed on for restrictive export controls on tech-starved Russia over a further Ukraine invasion. foreignpolicy.com/2022/02/22…

Economic security lies at core of Taiwan's national security. I commend the administration for approving a draft amendment to the National Security Act to make economic espionage a crime.

Welome to China.
Onze correspondent @sjoerddendaas werd om 12.00u live in het NOS Journaal door beveiligers voor de camera weggetrokken. Helaas is dit steeds vaker de dagelijkse realiteit voor journalisten in China. Hij is in orde en kon zijn verhaal gelukkig een paar minuten later afmaken
