the severing of diplomatic ties between Taiwan and Burkina Faso, calling on all parties in the country to stand united amid China’s continuing “oppression.”
Meanwhile, Tsai also expressed regret that the opposition party in Taiwan continues to criticize the ruling party, while remaining tolerant of China’s “oppression.”
“It is regrettable that an ally has chosen to leave us, but what’s even more regrettable is that internally, Taiwan fails to stand up in unity,” Tsai said, following Burkina Faso’s decision to cut ties with the Republic of China (Taiwan) on Thursday.
She said the opposition party will always remain critical of the government every time China finds a way to suppress Taiwan. [FULL STORY]
