The third summit of the International Parliamentary Union on China Policy took place in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, where it recruited new members to find solutions to China's current global threats and challenges.
The International Parliamentary Union (IPAC) held its annual China Policy Summit on Sept. 4 at the Czech Parliament Building in Prague, Voice of America (VOA) reported. The summit discussed the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime's undermining of the rules-based international order, disturbing global peace and stability, and various threats to freedom, human rights, and democracy.
At the annual China policy summit, parliamentarians from the Philippines, Kenya, and Paraguay were granted IPAC membership.
THANKS AND PRAISE FROM TEVANDAN
Also at the summit, Taiwanese Foreign Minister Wu Zhaoxie (吴钊燮) made a closing speech, thanking IPAC for its support of Taiwan and stressing that the Taiwanese people's determination to maintain peace and stability will strengthen the common values of freedom and democracy.
The Prague Declaration, which was adopted at the summit, also includes many urgent issues related to China. This included China's overseas pressures, military threats against Taiwan, dependence on renewable energy, the erosion of freedoms in Hong Kong, and concerns about the "One Belt, One Road" initiative by various countries.
The declaration again outlined several important points, from strengthening the economic relations of all countries with Taiwan to Taiwan's membership in various international organizations.
ONLY STRONGER GLOBAL PRESSURE CAN STOP CHINA
The anti-China International Parliamentary Union (IPAC) was founded on June 4, 2020, to coincide with the 31st anniversary of China's bloody crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square.
IPAC's third summit in Prague is expected to not only consider new measures to tackle the global challenges posed by China but also improve its capacity to tackle more complex issues with the participation of new members.
