TAIPEI - Former British prime minister Boris Johnson said on Aug 5 that Taiwan did not deserve to be bullied by China and urged the West to build economic and political relations with Taipei in the face of Beijing's campaign against the democratic island.
Mr Johnson is the third former British prime minister to visit Taiwan, after Ms Liz Truss in 2023 and Mrs Margaret Thatcher in the 1990s, and his trip comes at a time when Britain and China are seeking to further stabilise ties, with Prime Minister Keir Starmer expected to visit Beijing later in 2025.
Britain, like most countries, has no formal diplomatic ties with Taiwan but the two governments have close economic and cultural exchanges.
