Taiwan-Lithuania ties have a solid foundation. They must now adjust to political realities. What’s needed: fewer grand gestures, more robust cooperation across political parties and across society. My take on why Tsai Ing-wen’s visit matters. 🙏🏼 @demesdavid.bsky.social table.media/china/analys...

Wer sollte zentrale chinesische Parteitexte ins Deutsche übersetzen? (Bevor jetzt jemand sagt, Englisch reicht - der Bedarf ist im Bundestag und Ministerien da, denn nicht alle Fächer und Berufe arbeiten gleich intensiv in Englisch). Ein kurzer 🧵 (zum Parteitagsbericht 2022) #China #Chinakompetenz

Taiwan's government plans to replace language in Civil Code permitting parents to "inflict punishment upon their children" with a prohibition on "violent conduct that harms mental and physical health." Far-reaching implications for Taiwanese society. A big deal. www.taipeitimes.com/News/front/a...
