Minister of Foreign Affairs Lin Chia-lung received copies of the credentials of new ambassadors from Haiti, Paraguay and Belize Aug. 22 in Taipei City and pledged to continue deepening ties with the three allies.
Lin welcomed Roudy Stanley Penn from Haiti for returning to Taiwan for a second term. He said that as the two allies will celebrate 70 years of official ties next year, Taiwan looks forward to expanding cooperation with the Caribbean state in agriculture, education, medical care, security, talent cultivation and technology.
In response, Penn praised Taiwan for its rich experience in sustainable agricultural transition and disaster prevention and said he looks forward to more cooperation in the two areas...
During his meeting with Katherine Vanessa Meighan from Belize, Lin said he had met with the new ambassador at the second administrative committee meeting of the Taiwan-Belize Economic Cooperation Agreement held late last month in Taipei. The minister added that the government’s approval of white shrimp imports from the Central American ally bodes well for the official relationship.
