Interesting. Taiwan’s exports have dropped 40% since 2022 if we take out semiconductors and AI. Youth unemployment rate at 12% https://t.co/9wMImzoq6w

Seriously KMT? Should Taiwan go back to the Middle Ages? Taiwan's opposition party KMT proposes canning as punishment in Taiwan. A medieval proposal about canning for certain criminal offenses is suggested to be put to a referendum. That would certainly put Taiwan on the front pages around the world

Det er vil nærmest som det plejer som under Bush og Obaman. Verden er blot mere usikker. https://t.co/0dl3hym1yv

Ta' hiistoriebrillerne på. Våbensalg til Taiwan med forsinkelser er ikke nyt. Det er sket under Bush og Obama. Nu med Trump. Kina og USA har spillet det spil længe. Trump er anderledes direkte over for Taiwan, NATO, EU, Danmark med Grønland og derfor er USA for mange utroværdig. #dkmedier

1/ I wrote Thursday about how there is little unusual in Trump. And lo and behold we have an arms freeze, just as we had in 2007-8 under Bush.

No doubt this will swing back into another cycle of "Hey Taiwan why don't you spend more on your own defense?"

Most recent coverage on this topic has had me shaking my head...no, this isn't unprecedented. This piece had me nodding vigorously in agreement, this is the reality:

[Michael Danielsen - Taiwan Corner @MiDanielsen]

At Trump vil tale Taiwans præsident Lai kan styrke Taiwan, som Kina har haft held med at udstille som et problem,men kan også blive et cirkus efterfølgende afhængig af Trump. Han nævner et Taiwanproblem men det betyder ikke at Taiwan er problemet #dkmedier https://t.co/xKkwMno9Mu

[Michael Danielsen - Taiwan Corner @MiDanielsen]

Will Trump speak with President Lai, as he suggested? Trump said so many different things last week that there now seems to be something for everyone and plenty for Taiwan-watchers to debate.

Trump vil tale med Taiwans præsident om våbensalg. Virkelig? Han vil have Taiwans chipproduktion flyttet til USA. Ikke glad for uafhænighed. USA's udenrigsminister og Trump: USA politik er uændret. Det er som det plejer. Se på handlinger ikke ord #dkmedier

At the Copenhagen Democracy Summit, I told CNA that Taiwan should no longer see itself as a “small nation,” but should confidently and repeatedly assert its significance on the world stage as a big industrial nation. Get tired talking about shared value.

Sydkorea har fjernet brugen af Kina (Taiwan) på deres e-ankomstkort efter pres fra Taiwan. Danmark har ikke rykket sig endnu angiver fortsat taiwanere som kinesere på opholdkort og andre ID'er #dkmedier https://t.co/XPR8GKDfvw

And the real question is how Taiwanese voters will respond in the autumn elections and in 2028. Shall KMT adjust? Today, KMT says to the Taiwanese: One China and oppose Taiwan independence.KMT has majority in the parliament together with the loyal Taiwan's people's party

[Michael Danielsen - Taiwan Corner @MiDanielsen]

Taiwan has now revoked some privileges for Danish diplomatic staff over a Danish practice that gives Taiwanese nationality “China”". Details is not revealed. Denmark, why? https://t.co/wr7fD3BqwS

[Michael Danielsen - Taiwan Corner @MiDanielsen]

Taiwan har nu frataget visse privilegier for danske diplomater i Taiwan fordi Danmark giver taiwanere i Danmark nationalitet Kina. Ingen EU-lande gør det samme, og den nye praksis strider mod Danmarks ét-Kina politik. Danmark, hvorfor? https://t.co/wr7fD3BqwS

[Michael Danielsen - Taiwan Corner @MiDanielsen]

Historically, a KMT chair meeting Xi has not exactly been an electoral asset. For instance Ma and Hung.

The idea that Ko Wen-je is a political prisoner is lunacy. No reputable newspaper should be suggesting it. Left out is important context: the case against Ko was initiated by a KMT politician. Apparently the international media is unable to learn that fact

[Lev Nachman @lnachman32]

Huge breaking news: Ko Wen-Je sentenced to 17 years in prison.

This will have huge implications for the future of Taiwan’s domestic politics.
