President Tsai Ing-wen says Taiwan will continue working with the United States to develop a stronger partnership. Tsai was speaking Monday while meeting with visiting US Representative Ruben Gallego a Democrat from the state of Arizona.

Tsai said the Taiwan Travel Act, which was signed into law by President Donald Trump in mid-March, indicates firm relations between the two sides. Under the Taiwan Travel Act, US officials at all levels will be allowed to travel to Taiwan to meet with their counterparts.

Tsai also spoke about Washington’s approval earlier this month of a marketing license needed for US manufacturers to sell technology to Taiwan. She said the move is conducive to cross-strait peace and stability.

Tsai also thanked the visiting representative for his support for Taiwan’s bid to join international organizations. Gallego has voiced support for Taiwan’s participation in the World Health Assembly, the International Civil Aviation Organization as well as International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol).    [SOURCE]
