The Presidential Office has condemned North Korea’s test-firing of an intercontinental ballistic
missile (ICBM) on Tuesday. Presidential Office spokesperson Sidney Lin said Pyongyang’s move sabotages regional peace and stability.
Lin said Taiwan is in close contact with its partners regarding the matter.
“Taiwan attaches great importance to regional peace and stability. We play a responsible role in the region. Relevant departments are aware of the details of the test,” Lin said. “Our goal remains to maintain peace and stability in East Asia. We will keep close communication with neighboring countries to maintain that goal.”
Meanwhile, the foreign ministry says any communication between the United States and China should not harm the interests of Taiwan. That’s the word from foreign ministry spokesperson Eleanor Wang on Tuesday. [FULL STORY]
