Taiwan’s ambiguous political status makes it difficult for the country to participate in several international organizations and events. On the rare occasion it does participate, such as at the Olympic Games, Taiwan does so under a different name: Chinese Taipei.
On this episode of Zoom In Zoom Out, TaiwanPlus reporter Leslie Liao sits down with Taiwan’s representative to France, François Wu. Representative Wu is also the appointed deputy minister of foreign affairs. We first zoom in on Taiwan’s presence this year in the Paris Olympics, then zoom out to understand Taiwan’s strategy for cultural diplomacy.
