Taiwan's President Visits U.S., Central America: TaiwanPlus Coverage to Feature Exclusive Interviews

TAIPEI, March 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen's visit to the United States and Central America carries significance far beyond the handshakes and speeches, given the current tension in the Taiwan Strait. TaiwanPlus, the nation's premier English-language news outlet, will feature extensive coverage and exclusive interviews to help viewers decipher the dynamics and implications of the 10-day trip.

A two-part interview with Riley Walters, an Asian affairs expert at Hudson Institute and the Global Taiwan Institute, will stream on TaiwanPlus on April 3 and 4. Rand Corporation senior defense analyst Derek Grossman shares his perspective in an interview that will be available the following week. Miles Yu, who served as a China policy advisor to former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, provides further in-depth analysis in "Taiwan Talks," the platform's flagship political talk show.

"President Tsai Ing-wen's visit with key partners further demonstrates Taiwan's significance to U.S.-China relations and regional security," said TaiwanPlus CEO Michael Yu. "As a quickly emerging global media platform, TaiwanPlus's coverage of the president's trip aims to uncover the intricacies and broaden perspectives on issues that matter to Taiwan and the world."
