President William Lai on Wednesday, pledged to uphold Taiwan’s self-governing status in his most high-profile public address since taking office earlier this year.

Referencing China’s claim over the island, Lai said he would uphold the commitment to resist annexation or encroachment upon their sovereignty.

The president stated this while speaking to a crowd in Taipei to commemorate Taiwan’s National Day, only nine days after Communist China celebrated its 75th anniversary.

He promised to maintain the status quo of peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait and pledged to cooperate with Beijing on issues such as climate change, combating infectious diseases and maintaining regional security.

Recall that last week, Lai said it was absolutely impossible for China to be the motherland of Taiwan because the island’s government was founded in 1911, decades before the current Communist regime of mainland China was founded in 1949, a statement that has spurred up controversies.
