Thank you, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Republic of China (Taiwan), for the invitation to attend the 2026 Yushan Forum. It offered a fantastic opportunity to meet policy experts, academics, and foreign service officers and officials from countries worldwide. @PacificForum

Taiwan Security Monitor (台灣安全觀測站)
For the second consecutive day, four China Coast Guard vessels entered the restricted waters near Kinmen Island. Taiwan's Coast Guard shadowed throughout the incursion, which lasted around 4 hours. The CCG vessels, 14605, 14533, 14603, and 14531, are the same four that violated Kinmen's waters yesterday morning.

This map, which has circulated on this platform in recent hours, is AI generated. It is not even close to showing the current situation around Taiwan. It is seemingly based off of an exercise near Taiwan that occurred in 2024.

IMPORTANT CONTEXT: Before this article sparks sensationalism, recognize this activity is only considered "large-scale" in relation to the slower activity over the last three weeks. In fact, yesterday's reported ADIZ numbers were only the 8th most significant in 2026 alone.

@INDOPACOM @Interior @StateDept Chinese left Woleai, Yap, after completing the runway and left behind all sorts of trash, as well as this boat, which has now gone under and is leaking fuel in the lagoon - just down the beach from where women and children usually swim and where fishermen catch food for families.

#Taiwan Culture should never be silenced by politics. 🇹🇼✨ I am heartbroken to share that our Taiwanese Indigenous cultural performance at the AFC Women’s Asian Cup was abruptly canceled at the very last minute. The reason given? "Political issues." We were denied the chance to let the world see the beauty of Taiwan’s Indigenous people.

Sources familiar with the administration's thinking told Reuters the deal is being held under wraps ahead of Trump's planned March 31 to April 2 trip to Beijing to meet President Xi Jinping, but could be announced after he returns.
