Taiwan aims to advance ties with European Parliament
On 29 May, Director-General of the ROC Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Department of European Affairs Zhang Ming-zhong (pictured) congratulated the winners of the European Parliamentary elections on behalf of the Republic of China.
In addition, he expressed Taiwan’s willingness to continue its efforts to improve ties with the EU under the new European Parliament. Zhang said some members of the existing European Parliament-Taiwan Friendship Group were re-elected. He added that Taiwan will continue strengthening the bond with them while seeking to develop friendships with newly elected Parliamentarians in a bid to strengthen ties between Taiwan and Europe.
As the Parliament is one of the EU's main law-making institutions, it plays a major role in the development of ties between Taiwan and the EU. The European Parliament has expressed support for an economic co-operation agreement between Taiwan and the European Union and Taiwan's meaningful participation in international organizations such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
