This year’s Taiwan-US-Japan Trilateral Indo-Pacific Security Dialogue was held on the theme of “Challenges and Opportunities in the Indo-Pacific Region and the Taiwan Strait in 2020 & Beyond”. President Tsai Ing-wen stated in her opening address that critical events in 2020, including the #COVID19 pandemic, the democracy protests in #HongKong and the #US election, will significantly influence how we deal with geopolitics in our region in future. She added that the jailing of three democracy activists in Hong Kong is a warning that if we don’t defend #democracy, we give into the authoritarian threat.
Chair and CEO of The Asia Group and former US Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs, Dr. Kurt M. Campbell, gave a keynote speech via video link, stating that consistency in US policy in the #AsiaPacific region is key. He went on to state the importance of frameworks like the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue going forward under the new administration. He added that he hopes dialogue across the Taiwan Strait can resume, but that the ball is in Beijing’s court and that the US will keep its promises to Taiwan.
US Senator Bob Menendez stated in his prerecorded remarks that a free and open #IndoPacific region is important, and that the US Indo-Pacific Strategy should be rooted in cooperation with #LikeMindedCountries, including #Taiwan and #Japan. He also reaffirmed cross-party support for Taiwan in terms of security and international participation.
#TaiwanCanHelp its #LikeMinded partners to face traditional and non-traditional threats through platforms like the Global Cooperation and Training Framework (#GCTF).
