Quick Glance: Criticism of Taiwan's Minister at U.S.-Backed Seoul Summit
- China criticizes South Korea for Taiwan's involvement at a democracy summit in Seoul, where Digital Minister Audrey Tang delivered an unexpected video message.
- China opposes Taiwan's participation at the conference, urging Seoul to adhere to the one-China principle and not provide a platform for Taiwanese independence forces.
- Tang's presence at the event was not disclosed beforehand by authorities in Taiwan or South Korea. She emphasized the necessity of a democratic approach to address artificial intelligence challenges in her video message.
- Tang's attendance at Biden's inaugural democracy summit in 2021 also sparked objections from China, prompting U.S. officials to halt the video feed of her comments following a map in her presentation depicting Taiwan distinct from China.

US House Democrats try to force vote on Taiwan, Ukraine, Israel aid: Rarely used discharge petitions could force floor vote on foreign aid bill
taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/5113493
Quick Glance: Democratic Initiative for Ukraine Aid Vote
- House Democrats have officially launched their efforts to compel a vote on Ukraine aid to bring the legislation to the floor despite resistance from Republican leadership.
- Led by Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), the Democrats' request for approval requires 218 signatures to consider a Senate-approved foreign aid package providing $95 billion for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and humanitarian assistance in Gaza.
- The success rate of requests for approval is extremely low, and it is uncertain whether Democrats will obtain the 218 signatures they seek.
- Some liberal Democrats are already hesitant about providing more military aid to Israel, while moderate Republicans criticize the Democrats' strategy of insisting on the Senate's version of the foreign aid package.
