Reuters: Taiwan seeks international support after Chinese incursions
TAIPEI, Oct 7 (Reuters) - Taiwan will ensure regional peace and stability and seeks to work with other like-minded democracies, President Tsai Ing-wen told senior French and Australian dignitaries on Thursday, days after a dramatic spike in tensions with China.
The trips by four French senators and former Australian prime minister Tony Abbott come after four straight days, beginning last Friday, of massed Chinese air force incursions into Taiwan's air defence zone, moves met with concern by Washington and its allies.
Democratically ruled Taiwan has sought support from other democracies, especially the United States and it allies, amid the growing military and political pressure from China, which claims Taiwan as its own territory.

WNU Editor: China is alienating many countries, and Taiwan is taking advantage of it.
Countries like the U.K., France, Japan, Australia, India, and the U.S. may not have formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan, but they are signaling to Beijing that they want China to "back-off".
Unfortunately. I do not think China is listening.

WNU,
Yes, China is not listening, why it will do it? West is just all weak democracy, as Hitler said. Unfortunately the same fact will do the same thing and we have to be prepared for that.
