From 30 September to 6 October, a seven-member UK delegation led by former Minister of State for International Trade Mark Garnier MP visited Taiwan to promote bilateral interparliamentary exchange. The delegation was composed of both members of the House of Lords and House of Commons, including Lord Collins of Highbury, Baroness Falkner of Margravine, Baroness Bloomfield of Hinton Waldrist, as well as MPs Kate Hollern, Philip Hollobone and Stephen Morgan.
In addition to promoting bilateral interparliamentary exchange, the delegation’s visit aims to gain a deeper understanding of Taiwan’s overall developments and cross-strait relations. On 2 October, the delegation met with President Tsai Ing-wen to exchange views on further strengthening bilateral relations. During their stay, the parliamentarians also visited the Legislative Yuan, the National Security Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, among many others.
