November 27, 2024_ Taiwan expressed gratitude to G7 foreign ministers for their support for peace in the Taiwan Strait, which is considered crucial to global security. During a meeting in Italy, the ministers stressed the importance of keeping the Indo-Pacific free and open, expressing concern over tensions in the East and South China Seas. They also reiterated their opposition to any unilateral attempt to change the status quo by force, saying there is no legal basis for China's sovereign claims over these waters. Taiwan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed the statements, vowing to continue working with G7 members to promote universal values such as freedom and democracy, Taipei Times reported. Taiwan, a democratic island with a self-government, is often at the center of tensions with China, which considers it part of its territory.
