Taiwan has long been working with global partners to resolutely support Ukraine through humanitarian assistance and coordinated sanctions.

Taiwan is open to further information sharing with Ukraine to counter sanctions circumvention, concerning combating illegal transit and concealed end-use of goods.

Any assistance to the aggressor or violations of international embargoes and export control rules are unacceptable.

Taiwan is ready to tighten controls over goods passing through third countries with concealed final destinations in order to prevent them from reaching Russia.
