The Taiwanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) has called on Beijing to cease military provocations and aggressive tactics that threaten Taiwan`s existence, underscoring the necessity of maintaining the current "status quo" across the Taiwan Strait. This plea follows increasing concerns about China`s military activities in the region, which many view as attempts to intimidate the self-governing island.
In a recent statement, MOFA expressed gratitude for the support Taiwan has garnered from friendly nations and diplomatic allies over the past week, as reported by ANI. The Ministry urged China to acknowledge the existence of the Republic of China (Taiwan) and to respect the democratic values and lifestyle chosen by its people. “We ask China to engage in constructive dialogue rather than resort to military posturing,” the Ministry stated, emphasising the importance of peaceful relations.
