Czech Senate speaker meets with Taiwanese minister in Prague

Miloš Vystrčil, the speaker of the Czech upper house of Parliament, held talks with Kung Ming-sin, Minister of the National Development Council of Taiwan, on Tuesday.

The chairman of the Senate received a shirt with his portrait and the inscription "I am Taiwanese" as a gift. The slogan reflects Vystrčil's words from his visit to Taiwan in 2020, when he paraphrased the famous statement by US President John Kennedy.

While Czechia says it respects Beijing’s One China policy in recent years it has intensified its support of Taiwan.
