Former British prime minister Liz Truss said in Taiwan on Wednesday the West must avoid appeasing China and show unwavering support for the democratically governed island, in a speech that risks further damaging Britain's ties with Beijing.
Truss is the most well-known British politician to visit Taiwan since former prime minister Margaret Thatcher in the 1990s, and her trip comes at a time when relations between Britain and China are the worst in decades.
