Former Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shinzo made a surprise guest appearance at the inaugural #Taiwan-#Japan-#US Strategic Parliamentary Dialogue which took place earlier today, in which he called for all countries in the region to adhere to #RuleOfLaw while taking advantage of economic opportunities and condemned recent events in #Xinjiang and #HongKong.

Parliamentarians from across the aisle in all three countries took part in the dialogue, with opening remarks by Chair Furaya Keiji of the Japan-Taiwan Diet Members' Consultative Council, US Senators Bill Hagerty and Ed Markey, as well as Taiwan’s Legislative Speaker You Si-kun. MOFA would like to thank all of the #LikeMinded parties for making the event happen and echoes the calls of the speakers to maintain the status quo across the Taiwan Strait and peace and stability in the #IndoPacific region.

Taiwan is keen to join regional organizations like the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (#CPTPP), and will continue to work towards this goal through frameworks like the Global Training and Cooperation Framework.

外交部長吳釗燮接受葡萄牙「大眾報」(Público)記者António Saraiva Lima視訊專訪，訪談內容於今天刊出，對於近期中國頻頻對台灣進行文攻武嚇，吳部長表示：「台灣會盡力維持台海現狀，也會持續提升自我防衛能力」。

吳部長於訪談中另外說明我國政府處理兩岸關係採取「和平、對等、民主、對話」的堅定立場，我方願意在平等的基礎上共同促成有意義的對話。吳部長也分享我國防疫經驗、台美關係進展及我國將於立陶宛設立代表處等議題，此篇新聞廣受葡萄牙各界關注。

MOFA Minister Joseph Wu was interviewed recently by journalist António Saraiva Lima from #Portugal’s daily Público. He touched on the threat of authoritarianism, progress in Taiwan-US relations, the reciprocal establishment of representative offices with #Lithuania and #Taiwan’s efforts to control the #COVID19 pandemic, among other topics.

On the threat to the regional status quo, Minister Wu stated: "Taiwan will do its utmost to maintain the status quo in the Taiwan Strait and continue to raise our defensive capabilities."

定宇分享台灣相關外交區域安全消息…美國外交第二號人物副國務卿Wendy Sherman在日本東京接受專訪，提到美、日共同關注的三個議題：南海自由航行、反對單方面改變東海現況、維持台海和平穩定，另外也就記者提問的北韓非核化議題回應。

這再次證明，「台海和平穩定」是國際自由民主國家共同關切的重要議題之一，美日同盟的涵蓋範圍包括台海，美國從川普到拜登，看到在QUAD、G-7、歐盟、NATO等國際組織，以及各種2+2會議，美日透過多邊關係，逐漸加深「台海和平穩定（台灣安全）」是自由民主國家對中共政權劃下的「共同紅線」，這對台灣的穩定發展是非常正面的國際發展趨勢。

TOKYO — Wendy Sherman, the U.S. deputy secretary of state, sat down with reporters from Nikkei Asia and other Japanese media outlets on Wednesday to discuss the region’s most pressing security issues.

The wide-ranging discussion covered Taiwan, relations with China and North Korean denuclearization, among other topics. Sherman stressed that President Joe Biden’s administration is willing to engage with both Beijing and Pyongyang, while it looks to shore up its Indo-Pacific alliances.

We share important regional and global security concerns. During my meetings, I reaffirmed the United States’ absolute commitment to the defense of Japan. My Japanese counterparts and I discussed our commitment to maintain an inclusive, free, peaceful, stable and open Indo-Pacific region and our mutual opposition to activities that undermine, destabilize or threaten the rules-based international order. That includes maintaining freedom of navigation and overflight in the South China Sea and opposing any unilateral attempts to change the status quo in the East China Sea. We discussed the importance of preserving peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and the need to oppose destabilizing and coercive behavior in the Indo-Pacific.
