US calls on WHO to Invite Taiwan to Attend the World Health Assembly

Unites States Mission in Geneva urged Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the General Director of WHO, to invite Taiwan to attend the World Health Assembly next Monday.

The delegation issued a statement saying that they encouraged WHO to work harder to provide Taiwan with more meaningful cooperation opportunities.

The World Health Assembly next Monday will discuss the global COVID-19 epidemic situations. The delegation thinks that inviting Taiwan to participate is necessary as Taiwan has not recorded a confirmed case of COVID-19 for more than 200 consecutive days, and many countries praised its anti-epidemic performance.

Hundreds of parliamentarians from Europe and Latin America have recently submitted joint signatures to the WHO, requesting Taiwan to attend the World Health Assembly and even join the WHO.

China: Measures Taken Against Foreign Imports Beyond Reproach, Urges Australia to Reflect on Itself

It was reported that China has stopped buying a series of Australian products. In Beijing, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Wang Wenbin stated that the Chinese authorities have carried out legitimate measures on foreign imports, that they were in accordance with Chinese laws and regulations and international practices and that they were responsible measures in the interest of China’s state enterprises and consumers. He emphasised that the practice was reasonable, legal and beyond reproach.

Wang said that China has repeatedly urged Australia to reflect on itself and do more on things that benefit the mutual trust and cooperation between China and Australia and honour the spirit of comprehensive strategic partnership between them. It urged Australia to create good conditions and atmosphere for practical cooperation between the two countries in various fields.

He also said that since 2018, more than 10 investment projects from China have been rejected by Australia on account of groundless national security reasons, these rejections included the barring of Chinese companies from participating in Australia’s 5G network and infrastructure. Australia has also carried out 106 anti-dumping investigations on China, while China has only initiated 4 investigations on Australia. He questioned who it was that violated the principles of the market economy and the spirit of the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), and opined that the facts were very clear.
