TAIPEI: Taiwan and Britain signed an Enhanced Trade Partnership on Wednesday (Nov 8) that Taipei hopes will further boost its case to join a major pan-Pacific free trade pact and bolster the island's ties with other European states.
Taiwan views Britain as an important democratic partner despite the lack of formal ties, noting its concern over stepped-up Chinese military activities near the island, which Beijing views as its own territory, and its support for Taiwan's participation in global bodies such as the World Health Organization.
