Under President Ma, Beijing and Taipei, both members of the World Trade Organization (WTO), signed the Cross Strait Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) to reduce tariffs and trade restrictions.

US carries out new strike in Yemen after Biden vows to keep pressure on
Radar infrastructure has been a key target in the US military effort to halt Houthi attacks in the Red Sea. “Your strikes on Yemen are terrorism,” said Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, a member of the Houthi Supreme Political Council. SpilloverThe Red Sea crisis is part of the violent regional spillover of Israel’s war with Hamas, an Iran-backed Islamist group, in the Palestinian enclave of Gaza. Commercial ship-tracking data showed at least nine oil tankers stopping or diverting from the Red Sea.
