Ambassador Daniel T.C. Liao was invited on February 26 by the Swedish Center Party Youth (CUF) to give a keynote speech on cross-strait relations and Taiwan's current situation. Ambassador Liao introduced Taiwan’s economic and trade strengths, strategic position, freedom and democracy, and health care as well as Taiwan’s soft power such as becoming the first Asian country to legalize same-sex marriage. Ambassador Liao shared a photo of when Taiwan participated in the Stockholm Pride Parade 2019, and a video made by the Tourism Bureau, Republic of China (Taiwan).
There were 25 core members in attendance listening to the speech, including Isac Riddarsparre, Chairman of Center Party Students (CS) in Linköping, and Naod Habtemichael, Chairman of CS in Gothenburg. The participants were quite active in raising questions regarding for example Taiwan’s democratic development and how Taiwan reaches great achievements under China’s pressure. The participants thanked the ambassador for the informative and inspiring speech.
