We cannot continue to be talking about Taiwan's military reforms, yet the salary for conscripts has stayed the same for decades. I asked MinDef Chiu Kuo-cheng to significantly improve benefit package for conscripts.

We can tackle climate change—but it's going to take all of us working together. Taiwan unveils the roadmap for Taiwan to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. We will invest US$31.49 billion from 2022-2030 to decarbonize our economy.

Taiwan has raised over NT$ 600 million (US$ 21 million) in donations to support Ukraine. That says a lot about how the people of Taiwan view the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

As the PLA rapidly modernizes & develops its capabilities, Taiwan's reserve force plays an increasingly prominent role in our mobilization posture. We must make it absolutely clear that any attempt to invade Taiwan will be met with overwhelming resistance.
Today I went to support our reservists & see our new military reserve training for myself. Facing a growing authoritarian threat, the people of #Taiwan are committed to defending our nation & way of life.

Can we all commit to making sure that the courageous people of Ukraine 🇺🇦 have all the cucumbers🥒they need to fend off Russia's unprovoked invasion?

In Kyiv a woman knocked down a Russian drone from a balcony with a jar of cucumbers. How did they expect to occupy this country?

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. 🇹🇼🇺🇦

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.
