Taiwan’s aid diplomacy to Ukraine: catching two birds with one stone
Original language description
Taiwan ranks among the leading global humanitarian aid donors to Ukraine. However, due to the absence of direct communication with Ukraine, Taiwan delivers its aid to Ukraine through CEE countries, further strengthening Taiwan-CEE relations.Within the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, Taiwan began exchanging medical aid with the European Union. For instance, in April 2020, it donated seven million face masks to eleven European countries, including CEE countries. In return, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Poland, and Slovakia sent 845,900 COVID-19 vaccines to Taiwan between July and October 2021. Although modest, these efforts laid the groundwork for greater humanitarian cooperation after Russia invaded Ukraine in early 2022. The scale of Russia’s attack and Taiwan’s own experience of being perennially threatened by a larger, authoritarian neighbor led to an unprecedented increase in Taiwan’s humanitarian aid for Ukraine. In doing so, Taipei also bolstered its cooperation with the CEE region.
