Reaffirmation of the importance of maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait expressed in the Joint Statement on the Trilateral U.S.-Japan-Republic of Korea Meeting released Feb. 15 in Munich is sincerely appreciated by the government and people of Taiwan, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
According to the MOFA, the text was issued following the meeting between U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Japan Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya and South Korea Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference.
The three sides emphasized the importance of cross-strait peace and stability as an indispensable element of security and prosperity for the international community, encouraged peaceful resolution of cross-strait issues, opposed any attempts to unilaterally force or coerce changes to the status quo and expressed support for Taiwan's meaningful participation in appropriate global organizations.
The statement followed a similar stance expressed in an agreement published Feb. 11 by the five-party coalition government of Belgium, the ministry said. The first release from the EU member state's coalition government to include Taiwan-friendly content is warmly welcomed, the MOFA added.
The two statements, together with the Joint Leaders' Statement issued following the Feb. 8 meeting in Washington, D.C. between U.S. President Donald J. Trump and Japan Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, reflect the international consensus that cross-strait peace and stability is a matter of global interest.
The MOFA encouraged countries to keep monitoring regional developments and expressing concern over threats posed by China's gray-zone tactics and economic coercion. As a responsible member of the international community, Taiwan will continue to strengthen its self-defense capabilities and economic resilience while working closely with its like-minded partners to ensure peace, stability and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific, the ministry added.

The first of six incentive travel groups from India arrived in Taiwan Feb. 9 for a five-day visit, providing a boost to the local tourism sector and reflecting the success of government efforts to promote the country as a major destination.
According to the Tourism Administration under the Ministry of Transportation and Communications, the groups comprise around 800 Mumbai-based Asian Paints employees and their family members. The arrangements were made by Axplore Travelplus, a Mumbai-based agency that specializes in meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE) tourism.
During their stay, the group will experience Taiwan's tea culture in Taipei City's Maokong area and visit major tourist attractions such as the historic Dadaocheng neighborhood, Ximending shopping district, Taipei 101 and Taipei Zoo, as well as travel to the northeastern county of Yilan for beach activities. The TA expects the six groups to generate at least NT$30 million (US$914,578) in revenue for the local economy.
The TA said that India's enormous population, rising economic power and post-pandemic tourism surge led to around 30 million departures in 2024, reflecting the South Asian country's promise as a valuable source of foreign visitors.
This potential prompted the TA to launch the Taiwan Tourism Information Center in Mumbai in February 2024 and initiate a raft of promotional campaigns, such as staging business sessions with local travel agencies and inviting media outlets and social media influencers to visit Taiwan, the agency said, adding that Axplore Travelplus was among the MICE service providers that visited Taiwan last June.
