Taiwan on Wednesday denounced Russia's deployment of "peacekeeping" troops in two separatist-held regions in eastern Ukraine, amid fears Beijing might copy Moscow's playbook and attempt to take the self-ruled island by force.
After chairing a National Security Council meeting following Russia's ordering troops into the two breakaway regions, President Tsai Ing-wen condemned Russia for its infringement of Ukraine's sovereignty, calling on all parties involved in the dispute to resolve it peacefully and rationally.
