Taiwan: Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen is very happy after meeting with US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in California. After returning from his trip, he said that our enthusiastic reception abroad is a powerful message.

We are not going to bow down to any kind of oppression. He further said that our exchange with the world will not stop due to pressure and obstacles. Let us tell you that earlier he thanked America for standing with Taiwan.
Let us tell that China is shocked by Wayne’s visit to America. According to reports, China has imposed sanctions against the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and other American and Asian-based organizations. It is known that for the last few years, China has been pressurizing various countries of the world to end diplomatic relations with Taiwan and not recognize it as an independent country. Only 13 countries in the world recognize Taiwan as an independent country and most of them are small countries in Latin America.
