Den taiwanske præsident Lai Ching-te markerer sit første år i embedet midt i betydelige udfordringer, herunder intens indenlandsk politisk strid, stigende kinesisk militært pres og trusler om amerikanske toldafgifter. Oppositionspartier har aktivt blokeret Lais lovgivningsmæssige dagsorden, hvilket har ført til politisk dødvande og offentlige protester.

Lais regering har givet udtryk for vilje til at indgå i dialog med Kina samtidig med at styrke øens forsvar.
