The United Nations (UN), which is celebrating its 80th anniversary, has been urged to fulfill its vision of “leaving no one behind” and becoming “better together” by including Taiwan in its meeting and system.
This is as the country also called on the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) to include in its forthcoming conference.
Taiwan Minister of Foreign Affairs Lin Chia-lung, in a statement yesterday, argued that the country is a key player and an indispensable partner in the Indo-Pacific region, working toward global peace, stability, and prosperity.
According to Lin, Taiwan stands on the front line of the Indo-Pacific’s first island chain, defending democracy and freedom from authoritarian expansionism.

The minister noted that the world today faces mounting uncertainties and challenges—from prolonged conflicts and democratic backsliding to economic coercion and disinformation campaigns.
“In this fragile global environment, peace cannot be taken for granted. Democracies must unite to bolster resilience and safeguard our cherished values and way of life.
“Taiwan is a key player and an indispensable partner in the Indo-Pacific region, working toward global peace, stability, and prosperity. It stands on the front line of the Indo-Pacific’s first island chain, defending democracy and freedom from authoritarian expansionism. Taiwan also contributes significantly to stability and prosperity through its robust economy and semiconductor ecosystem.
“As the 21st-largest economy, Taiwan leads in artificial intelligence and semiconductors—producing over 60 percent of the world’s chips and 90 percent of its most advanced ones.”
