Breaking: Japanese broadcaster @NHKWORLD_News reported that the Japanese government is planning to unveil the policy direction of providing #Taiwan with 1.2 million doses of AZ vaccine tomorrow. cna.com.tw/news/firstnews…
Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga admitted today that the whole process of providing #Taiwan with AZ #COVID19 vaccine has entered the final stage, according to NHK.
Additionally, Japan's Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi told the parliament that Japan is working towards the goal of providing #Taiwan the AZ vaccines this month because their understanding is that Taiwan is in urgent need of vaccines this month.
Motegi emphasized during the parliamentary session that since #Taiwan is one of the first countries to donate to Japan during the Fukushima disaster, if Taiwan is facing some troubles, Japan should offer the necessary help. rti.org.tw/news/view/id/2…

According to Apple Daily, Japan's Asahi Shimbun is reporting that Tokyo will in fact offer several batches of AZ #COVID19 vaccines to #Taiwan, apart from the 1.24 million that is expected to reach Taiwan tomorrow afternoon. tw.appledaily.com/international/…
The report said the Japanese government wants to take a route that's outside of the regular international framework and take an active role in facilitating the donation of AZ #COVID19 vaccines to #Taiwan within a short time.
The report suggests that the Japanese government originally wants to donate the vaccines to #Taiwan through COVAX, but that will take a much longer time for the vaccines to reach #Taiwan.

Latest for @dwnews: 32 years ago, #HongKong was the safe haven for many #TiananmenSquareMassacre student leaders but this year, it is at the frontline of #China's crackdown or preventing any form of commemoration of the bloody event from happening. dw.com/en/hong-kong-t…
