Today is the 47th anniversary of the Taiwan Relations Act. It has for almost five decades ensured Taiwan’s security and bolstered U.S. interests in the Indo-Pacific. The TRA still stands today as a bulwark against Chinese Communist Party aggression.

As #TeamTaiwan’s Lin Yu-ting 林郁婷 prepares to fight for gold in women’s boxing at #Paris2024, she carries the strength of a nation. She has faced adversity & senseless attacks from beyond the ring with incredible grace & unwavering courage. We're cheering her on to the finish!

[吳沛憶 Wu Pei-Yi @Wu_Pei_Yi]

Challenging Taiwanese female Olympic boxer Lin Yu-ting's eligibility is not only a challenge to the International Olympic Committee but also a challenge to Taiwan as a whole.

Lin Yu-ting is a globally recognized top female boxer with 16 years of experience and many international championships. This is her second Olympics, where she is fully qualified to compete for a gold medal in the sport she loves.

Lin first started boxing as a child to protect her mother from domestic abuse. When she began, there were very few female boxers in Taiwan, so she trained with male boxers.

Inspired by her, more talented women in Taiwan have now joined boxing.

She was awarded Taiwan’s Best Female Athlete.

We feel personally attacked when she is humiliated, and the President of Taiwan has announced that the government will support her in taking legal action against the IBA for damaging her reputation.

Today, Lin will return to the ring once again. Let's cheer her on.

林郁婷在18歲時為台灣贏得了第一枚世界青年拳擊錦標賽金牌，她獲世錦賽和亞運雙冠，是世界公認的頂尖女性拳擊手。這是她第二次參加奧運，她將為她熱愛的拳擊運動站上金牌舞台。

林郁婷已被國際奧委會完全認可，符合2024年奧運會的參賽資格，她遵守了所有規定。對她資格的挑戰不僅是對國際奧委會誠信的質疑，也是在挑戰台灣的國家誠信。

為什麼質疑林郁婷的資格如此荒謬並令台灣人心碎？

台灣總統已經宣布將對國際拳擊協會（IBA）因損害林郁婷的名譽採取法律行動。林郁婷是我們國家長期培養的選手，曾獲得台灣全國最佳女性運動員獎項，並且現在在大學任教。

台灣感謝她為運動性別平權的貢獻，尤其是她從小為了保護母親免受家庭暴力而學習拳擊。

當林郁婷加入校隊時，台灣的女性拳擊手寥寥無幾，她只能和男性拳擊手一起訓練。由於她的努力，現在有更多優秀的台灣女性成為拳擊手。

林郁婷的故事啟發了許多年輕女性。全台灣人民看著她成長，她就像每個家庭的女兒，她委屈我們跟著流淚，她奪勝利我們感到榮耀。

今天，林郁婷將再次為榮譽而戰，全台灣以她為榮。

邀請你一起為這位堅強而正直的運動員林郁婷喝采！

@CNN @rogerwaters @smerconish “Taiwan is part of China, and that's been absolutely accepted by the whole of the international community since 1948.” — NOT TRUE.

@SpeakerPelosi Welcome to Taiwan, Ms Speaker!

@nhk_news My condolences to former Prime Minister’s family and Japanese people. Deep sorrow from many of us in Taiwan. Shocked to learn what has happened.

Felt a little emotional when the #Taipei skies darkened and the top of #Taipei101, #Taiwan’s tallest building lit up. The tower’s colours change every day. Tonight #Taiwan stands with #Ukraine

[蔡英文 Tsai Ing-wen @iingwen]

The arrests of #StandNews staff & singer Denise Ho @hoccgoomusic are yet another example of the Beijing authorities' crackdown on free speech in #HongKong. We in #Taiwan regret to see their detention & call on the international community to stand up for freedom & democracy in HK.

Taiwan will never surrender to the EVIL Chinese Communist Party.

Taiwan is a DEMOCRATIC and FREE country.

Taiwan is a critical partner to the United States and a democratic success story. Taiwan should have meaningful participation in the @UN system, especially as we face an unprecedented number of global challenges.
