Taiwan vows to join 'democratic countries' in sanctioning Russia
Taiwan Premier Su Tseng-chang has said the island will join “democratic countries” to impose sanctions on Russia over the invasion of Ukraine, although he did not give details.
The crisis is being watched closely in Taiwan, which China claims as its own territory, and has faced increased military pressure by Beijing over the last two years.
“We very harshly condemn such an act of invasion and will join democratic countries to jointly impose sanctions,” Su told reporters in Taipei on Friday without giving details.
Taiwan Economy Minister Wang Mei-hua told reporters the island will “harshly scrutinise” exports to Russia and “coordinate” with unspecified allies for further actions. She did not elaborate.
