EU MEPs in Taiwan

A delegation of MEPs has landed in Taiwan despite warnings from Beijing. The seven EU parliamentarians from the Special Committee on Foreign Interference in all Democratic Processes in the European Union, including Disinformation (INGE) want to learn more in Taiwan about disinformation and cyber-defense, the Taiwanese Foreign Ministry announced. At the same time, an environment for freedom of expression and information will be promoted, it added. On Wednesday, the group met Taiwan’s Premier Su Tseng-chang. A meeting with President Tsai Ing-wen is said to be on the agenda for Thursday.
