快新聞/中國又施壓? 波蘭贈台40萬劑AZ疫苗「含國旗、Taiwan」推文悄刪除

波蘭政府4日宣布捐贈台灣40萬劑AZ疫苗,5日清晨6時16分左右,由長榮航空BR-66自維也納運抵桃園國際機場。

波蘭是繼立陶宛、斯洛伐克、捷克後,第四個宣布捐贈台灣疫苗的歐盟會員國。波蘭外交部昨在官網指出,先前疫情爆發時,台灣曾捐贈給波蘭100萬個口罩、5000套防護服和2萬套手術衣,波蘭對此表示感謝,因此將捐贈40萬劑COVID-19疫苗給台灣。

波蘭外交部昨也在推特PO出疫苗登機照,寫到「國際團結和互相支持是至關重要」,此外文中還有我國國旗符號、以「Taiwan」稱呼我方,讓不少台灣網友湧入留言道謝。

不過,波蘭疑似後來遭中國施壓,今一早被網友發現目前已找不到該貼文,但波蘭外交部則仍刊登捐贈疫苗給台灣的新聞。

LITHUANIA-CHINA SPAT: Sixty-two lawmakers signed a letter to the member state, where a Taiwan office is to open, vowing support amid bullying by Beijing

By Lin Chia-nan / Staff reporter

Sixty-two European lawmakers from 20 countries on Friday sent a joint open letter to Lithuanian officials, backing the Baltic nation’s plan to deepen its ties with Taiwan.

“We write to express our solidarity and our support for Lithuania against the threats, intimidation and bullying behavior targeted at the Lithuanian people by the government of the People’s Republic of China,” they wrote.

“The Chinese government’s aggressive actions towards Lithuania are symptomatic of its broader refusal to abide by norms, values and standards of the international rules-based order,” the lawmakers added.

The letter was initiated by EU lawmakers Petras Austrevicius of Lithuania and Reinhard Butikofer of Germany, who chairs the European Parliament’s delegation for relations with China, and was endorsed by lawmakers from 20 countries and five political groups, Butikofer said in a statement.

It was addressed to Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda, Lithuanian Prime Minister Ingrida Simonyte and Viktorija Cmilyte-Nielsen, the speaker of the Seimas, the Lithuanian parliament. Copies were also sent to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and other senior EU officials.

The letter said that Beijing has put the Baltic country under pressure by recalling its ambassador and reportedly halting the issuance of export permits to some Lithuanian businesses, after the country announced that it would host a representative office bearing the name “Taiwan” in Vilnius.

Lithuania has also announced its decision to open a representative office in Taiwan in the fall.

The letter also mentioned Beijing’s de facto trade sanctions on Australia, Japan and Sweden, and its pressure campaign against the Czech Republic earlier this year, saying that China aims to coerce other countries into “geopolitical acquiescence.”

The letter called on the EU to “take a firm stance against the Chinese government’s coercive diplomacy” and reiterated the right of its member states to “conduct their economic, cultural and diplomatic relations with Taiwan as they see fit.”

In Taipei, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs yesterday welcomed the open letter, thanking the bloc’s legislature for showing support to Taiwan after its foreign affairs committee on Wednesday passed the EU-Taiwan Political Relations and Cooperation report and related proposals.

China’s bullying of one EU member state has prompted European lawmakers to go beyond their political differences to express solidarity, the ministry said.

During a discussion on the EU’s relations with China at an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers on Friday, Lithuanian Minister of Foreign Affairs Gabrielius Landsbergis said that the EU must adhere to its values and reduce dependence on trade with China.

The EU must also coordinate its China policy with like-minded countries in the Indo-Pacific region and beyond, as well as reinforce EU-NATO cooperation on China issues, Landsbergis said in a statement on the ministry’s Web site.
