Taiwan‘s Vice President-elect, Hsiao Bi-khim, is visiting the Czech Republic after a low-key trip to the United States, the foreign ministry said on Tuesday.

Hsiao was invited to the Czech Republic by the Sinopsis think tank and will speak with them and meet other “friends” in the country to exchange views before her inauguration, Taiwan’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Jeff Liu said.

Czech Senate President Milos Vystrcil, who visited Taiwan in 2020, posted a picture on X, formerly Twitter, of him meeting and chatting with Hsiao.
