【全球都應關注中國極權主義擴張】
外交部長吳釗燮接受「澳洲金融評論報」視訊專訪，呼籲國際社會正視中國極權主義擴張所產生的影響，有以下幾個重點：
.
✍️台灣在對抗中國極權主義的前線捍衛民主
吳部長強調，中國持續擴張威權主義，不僅迫害新疆、西藏與香港，也箝制宗教自由與外國媒體。此外，在東海與南海軍事活動越來越頻繁，還從第一島鏈延伸到第二、三島鏈，引發周邊國家不安。台灣身處 #對抗中國極權主義最前線，也是 #前線的民主捍衛者，呼籲理念相近民主國家展現對台灣的支持。
.
✍️呼籲世界認同並支持台灣
中國持續以軍事威脅、假訊息、混合戰、經濟手段等方式侵擾台灣，吳部長表示 #我們不會讓台灣成為第二個香港，台澳共享 #自由、#民主、#人權 等普世價值，相信澳洲人民也將認同支持台灣。
吳部長還引述德國牧師馬丁‧尼莫拉的著名詩句，說明漠視周遭發生的事物終將讓自己受害，呼籲包含澳洲的全球民眾都應關注中國極權主義擴張。

✍️期盼台澳雙邊關係更多合作
吳部長表示，台灣期盼澳洲盡速啟動「台澳經濟合作協議」(ECA)以強化雙邊經貿關係。此外，也期盼澳洲未來能支持台灣申請加入「跨太平洋夥伴全面進步協定」(CPTPP)，一方面強化經貿關係，一方面期待台澳針對供應鏈韌性、對抗疫情等加強合作，期待雙方就區域事務能有更多交流合作。

If you haven't read MOFA Minister Joseph Wu's interview with #Australia's Financial Review, we implore you to check it out.
Minister Wu explained to our friends in #Australia why what happens to #Taiwan is more than a regional issue, given Taiwan' status as a democracy on the front-lines of China's authoritarian expansionism, and the PRC's attempts to stifle freedom and democracy beyond its borders. He echoed the words of a German pastor inscribed on a monument in Boston, "First, they came after the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, but I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. And then they came for the Catholics, but I didn't speak up because I'm Protestant. But by the time they came for me, there was nobody left to speak out for me. "
While pointing out that China often uses the Taiwan issue to distract from its internal strife, he analyzed the likelihood of conflict breaking out and pointed out the increasing attention paid to this ideological confrontation by like-minded countries around the world.
Minister Wu also looked at the prospects of more trade and cooperation between Taiwan and Australia as global supply chains have been realigned over recent years and expressed his hope that Taiwan can accede to the #CPTPP.
He ended by reiterating Taiwan's commitment to peace and prosperity in the region and to continuing its efforts to help other countries in the international community in times of need.
