American Congressman Mike Gallagher leads a U.S. delegation to meet with Taiwan’s President Tsai Ing-wen, President-elect Lai Ching-te, and Legislative Speaker Han Kuo-yu during a 3-day visit in Taiwan. Discussions center on U.S.-Taiwan relations, regional security, and investment, part of a broader tour of the Indo-Pacific region. The visit aims to strengthen ties and promote mutual understanding between the two nations.

Taiwan’s Foreign Minister, Joseph Wu, reassures the nation of the U.S.’ consistent support ahead of U.S. President Joe Biden’s scheduled meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in San Francisco on November 15. Wu states that Taiwan is likely to be a topic of discussion in the meeting and that the Foreign Ministry is closely monitoring relevant information. The Biden-Xi meeting will take place on the sidelines of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit and will be their first face-to-face conversation since last November. Wu also addresses rumors about Taiwan’s representative to the U.S., Hsiao Bi-khim, potentially becoming the running mate for Democratic Progressive Party’s presidential candidate Lai Ching-Te, stating that the Ministry cannot answer election-related matters. However, Wu assures the public that personnel changes in diplomatic positions are routine and do not impact Taiwan’s relations with the U.S.
