closed-door meeting 結果共2筆

U.S. Congressman Mike Gallagher, chairman of the House of Representatives select committee on China, visits Taiwan’s Legislative Yuan and is warmly received by Legislative Speaker Han Kuo-yu and Deputy Speaker Johnny Chiang. Han welcomes the delegation with traditional Spring Couplets and invites Gallagher for a photo, praising his youthful appearance. The group then moves on to a closed-door meeting.

Kuomintang (KMT) Presidential Candidate Hou Yu-ih has set a deadline of Friday (Nov. 3) for final negotiations with the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) ahead of the 2024 presidential election. If an agreement is not reached by then, there will be no further talks. A closed-door meeting between KMT Chairman Eric Chu, Hou, and TPP Chairman Ko Wen-je on Oct. 31 failed to forge an agreement. The preliminary negotiation was originally scheduled for Friday, but Chu initiated the meeting on Oct. 31 due to concerns about the outcome. The 53-minute meeting resulted in a deadlock, with all parties sticking to their viewpoints without reaching a consensus. Ko stated that there’s no need for another meeting without a clear action plan, while Chu emphasized that the focus of the tripartite meeting was to express good intentions and find a method for party negotiation rather than engaging in competition.
