I want to thank the 44 scholars and retired government officials who published an open letter today showing solidarity with democracy in Taiwan.
Your letter shows support for the… 更多 people of Taiwan when they oppose the “one country, two systems” framework that China wants to impose on us. Your letter also shows that our international friends will not stand idly by when we resist threats and uphold democracy, and that Taiwan will not have to stand alone.
The people of Taiwan deeply cherish democratic values. When our freedom, way of life, and national sovereignty are threatened, we will pull together to protect our shared values.
