The unwavering support for cross-strait peace and stability recently expressed by Australia, the U.K. and the EU is deeply appreciated by the government and people of Taiwan, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said July 26.
John Healey was speaking on board the HMS Prince of Wales alongside Richard Marles, Australia’s deputy prime minister, as the ship docked in Darwin to join war games with allies, including the US. Asked by The Telegraph about what the UK is doing to help countries like
Taiwan to prepare for potential escalation from China, Mr Healey said: “If we have to fight, as we have done in the past, Australia and the UK are
nations that will fight together. We exercise together and by exercising
together and being more ready to fight, we deter better together.”
