Europe trip ‘successful,’ Minister of Justice saysBy Jason Pan / Staff reporterTaiwan opened the door to more international cooperation with European nations as Minister of Justice Tsai Ching-hsiang (蔡清祥) visited Germany and the Netherlands earlier this month to discuss enhanced mutual legal assistance and reciprocal visits. “It was a very successful trip with meetings held with top justice officials of the hosting countries, and mutual judicial cooperation and further partnership with Taiwan were discussed,” Tsai said at a news conference on Wednesday at the Ministry of Justice in Taipei. It was very significant to have a personal meeting in Berlin on July 4 with German Minister of Justice Marco Buschmann, Tsai said, adding that he invited Buschmann to Taiwan.
