Taiwan’s democracy supports transparency, respect for human rights, & the rule of law – values leading to a more peaceful & prosperous world. We benefit from the contributions of all stakeholders, incl. Taiwan, toward solving shared challenges at the @UN and other institutions.
Taiwan's exclusion from @UN bodies undermines the institution's important work. The United States sees Taiwan as a valued partner, a democratic success story, and a trusted friend that should have meaningful participation in the UN system. state.gov/supporting-taiwans…

Pratas Island was mentioned for the 1st time in MND's China Military Power Report 2019, since then China has stepped up its grey-zone operations in Southwest Taiwan both in the air & at sea. It's important that we continue to focus our resources on asymmetric capabilities.

Taiwan is one of the world’s most vibrant democracies, a global high-tech powerhouse, and a hub of travel, culture, and education. The international community would benefit from Taiwan’s expertise, including at the UN. #TaiwanCanHelp youtube.com/gvHLF-1zjc0

🇪🇺🇹🇼 EU Parliament today votes on the historic report on EU-Taiwan political relations and cooperation. That Chinese Communist Party efforts to stop this democratic process were futile sends a strong signal from Strasbourg to Beijing. I urge MEPs to vote in favor of my report.

NSB DG Chen Ming-tong 陳明通 & I talked about how to more effectively counter China's political influence. This begins w/ asking social media sites like Facebook to make transparent their censorship guidelines & seek clarity on why certain comments appear to be censored more.

Only 110 miles separate mainland China and the island of Taiwan. But when it comes to internet freedom, the two might as well be on different planets. @Diplomat_APAC #FreedomOnTheNet freedomhou.se/3lzthTk

As Guam's strategic importance continues to increase, I believe it makes practical sense to have a defense attaché office at Taiwan's mission in Guam. Maintaining regular communication channels with our U.S. counterparts is critical to preventing a crisis and during a crisis.

Defense Minister Chiu Kuo-cheng and I discussed the importance for our pilots to maintain high standards of professionalism during air-to-air encounters. It's imperative that PLA exercise restraint to avoid potential conflicts due to miscalculations or accidents.
