Foreign Minister Wu slams China's aggression in Le Monde (TVBS News)
TAIPEI (TVBS News) — Taiwan's Foreign Minister, Joseph Wu, condemned China's violation of the military status quo across the Taiwan Strait in an interview published Tuesday (Jan. 2) in the French news outlet Le Monde.
He accused China of attempting to obscure Taiwan's sovereignty and initiating a 'choose between peace or war' cognition war.
Wu said China's interference efforts are increasingly difficult to discern and run contrary to Taiwan's attempts to uphold the status quo across the Taiwan Strait.
He reiterated President Tsai Ing-wen's cautious and responsible stance ahead of the approaching presidential election and committed to strengthening defense forces to signify that invading Taiwan would not be easy for China.
The foreign minister also criticized China's hybrid warfare, alleging it seeks to convince the public that the upcoming election is a choice between conflict and economic slowdown or peace and prosperity.
Le Monde added that Wu has repeatedly visited Eastern Europe and Scandinavia to increase global awareness of the risks of conflict in the Taiwan Strait.
