Taiwan President Lai Ching-te called for a trade deal with the European Union (EU), which he said would allow for the two parties to cooperate on critical semiconductor technology, during the annual EU Investment Forum in Taiwan on Nov. 18.
“Looking to the future, Taiwan hopes to take an innovative approach towards the signing of an economic partnership agreement with the EU,” Lai said. “This would not only make both our economies more resilient and secure but also ensure the stable operation of global supply chains.”
