Our thoughts are with the families and loved ones of those aboard Air India flight AI171, and the people of India, the UK, and other nations impacted by the devastating crash. Taiwan is monitoring the situation closely and extends sympathy to all affected in this difficult time.
Authoritarian regimes erase history; democracies have a duty to preserve it. Today, we remember those who marched for freedom in Tiananmen Square. Taiwan stands firm with like-minded partners on defending democracy and human rights to ensure a free society for future generations.
