Europe, especially its media and leaders, need to urgently unlearn false images and narratives about Taiwan influenced by both the CCP and the KMT in the old days, as well as the EU's own ignorance and complacency. Taiwan's and Europe's democratic values have never been so closely related!
Un dossier fait d'une intéressante sélection d'articles mais avec titre complètement "has been" en couverture, c'est possible.
On pensait être débarrassés de "l'autre Chine" et de "l'île rebelle", visiblement elles rôdent encore dans les rédactions.

J’ai assisté hier soir à Taipei au meeting du DPP (150.000 participants selon les organisateurs, sans doute un peu moins mais le boulevard Ketagalan était bondé avec une très grande énergie dans le public). Quelques remarques dans les posts à suivre.

Suomen sosiaaliturva on jo nyt selvästi muista Pohjoismaista jäljessä, mutta myös OECD-maiden keskiarvon alle. Hallitus heikentää sosiaaliturvaa entisestään, vaikka pohjoismainen esimerkki todellisuudessa edellyttäisi sen vahvistamista.
