At a United Nations press conference, U.S. Secretary of State Rubio outlined 三 points: that U.S.-China relations will define the 二十一世紀, that the United States puts its national interests first, and that arms sales are constrained by production capacity and inventory. The article argues that Taiwan should strengthen its role in supply chains and establish channels of communication with the mainland to safeguard its security and standing in a century defined by interests.

Facts:
- U.S. Secretary of State Rubio held a press conference at United Nations headquarters on September 二十三日, citing his view that U.S.-China relations will define the 二十一世紀.
- Rubio stressed that as long as Trump is in office, the United States will always act in its national interests and will never place the international order above U.S. interests.
- Rubio said delays in arms sales to Taiwan stem from U.S. industrial capacity and inventory constraints: once the equipment is sold, the United States has none left for itself, and it cannot produce more at present.
- Last 十二月, an arms sale to Taiwan worth 一百一十一億 U.S. dollars, the largest ever, was just completed, but the second batch worth 一百四十億 U.S. dollars remains undecided.
- In 八月 this year, the Ministry of National Defense ordered more than 2,000 drones from Anduril, and the Ministry of Economic Affairs helped more than 十 Taiwanese manufacturers enter its supply chain.
- On 九月三十日, Beijing changed “opposing separatist actions for Taiwan independence” to “combating separatist forces for Taiwan independence,” while restoring “peaceful development of cross-strait relations.”
- At the end of 二○一九年, Rubio gave a speech at the National Defense University as a senator, opening by saying that the most defining geopolitical relationship of this century is the U.S.-China relationship.

This article analyzes the benefits and limitations of Taiwan's international religious exchanges, noting their double-edged effects. On one hand, advocacy for religious freedom and cultural exchanges raise Taiwan's international profile; on the other, excessive politicization could exacerbate cross-strait conflict and restrict normal exchanges.

Facts:
- In July 2018, the U.S. Department of State held the first “Ministerial to Advance Religious Freedom” and released the “Potomac Plan of Action.”
- In 2019, the Tsai Ing-wen administration appointed Bushi Dali, president of Yushan Theological College, as the first ambassador-at-large for religious freedom.
- In May 2026, Taiwan and the Embassy of the United States to the Holy See held an international workshop at the Holy See through the GCTF on “Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Work.”
- In May 2026, Beigang Chaotian Temple's Mazu made its first large-scale visit to Japan, with about 170 worshippers traveling together to Tokyo and other locations for exchanges.
- In October 2025, the Ministry of the Interior said there had been at least 116 cross-strait religious exchange activities supported by mainland Chinese officials in 2024.
- As of October 2025, 67 religious groups and 2,971 participants had completed registration for exchanges in mainland China.
- Taiwan currently has only 12 diplomatic allies.

- U.S. representatives may hire 18 full-time aides and 4 part-time aides, while senators usually have 30 to 40 aides.

- 一九六八年出版的《台北市綱要計畫》建議將松山機場遷移到「桃園台地」，催生桃園國際機場興建計畫。
- Former Minister without Portfolio Chang Ching-sen believes that although several opportunities to relocate Songshan Airport have been missed, the issue is still worth revisiting.
- In addition to serving civil aviation, Songshan Airport also handles domestic disaster relief, government charter flights, evacuation of national leaders, and the evacuation of international visitors.
