Han of the Legislative Yuan meets with a seven-member delegation of scholars from the Hudson Institute, the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), and the Hoover Institution; President Han: The Legislative Yuan defends national security and safeguards Taiwan across party lines
立法院韓國瑜院長於本（4月15）日下午在國民黨陳永康委員、民進黨鍾佳濱委員、民眾黨王安祥委員等人陪同下，接見美國智庫學者訪問團一行。
On the afternoon of April 15, Legislative Yuan President Daniel K.Y. Han (韓國瑜), accompanied by KMT Legislator Adm. Chen Yeong-Kang, DPP Legislator Chung Chia-Pin, and TPP Legislator Dr. Wang An-Hsiang, received a delegation of scholars from U.S. think tanks.
韓院長首先熱情歡迎訪團蒞臨，並逐一介紹今日出席之跨黨派委員，繼指出，警界關心治安、教育界關心教育、財經界關心經濟，而在2026年全球局勢變遷之際，「安全」已成為各界關注的核心議題，也是立法院各黨高度重視的議題。韓院長並表示，台灣與全球皆渴望安全，尤其台灣人民安全意識強烈，期盼台海穩定與世界和平、人民安居樂業。
President Han opened the meeting by extending a warm welcome to the delegation and introducing each attending legislator from across party lines. He then stated that, just as law enforcement is concerned with public safety, the education sector with education, and the financial and economic sectors with the economy, security has become a core issue of concern across all sectors amid changes in the global landscape in 2026. Security is also an issue to which all parties at the Legislative Yuan attach great importance. President Han also stated that Taiwan and the rest of the world aspire to security. Taiwanese people, he said, have a particularly strong awareness of security and hope for cross-strait stability, world peace, and the ability to live and work in peace and contentment.
團長「哈德遜研究所」資深研究員許毓仁感謝韓院長及跨黨派委員撥冗接見，表示其身分雖已不同，但是愛中華民國的心從未改變。許資深研究員續指出，世界局勢快速變遷，台灣在全球半導體供應鏈與戰略地位之角色越顯重要，訪團瞭解並尊重台灣的立法程序，國防特別預算條例正值黨團協商階段，本次訪台特別傳達美方對台灣安全的關注，也表示美方會持續推動與台灣合作。
The head of the delegation, Hsu Yu-Jen, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, thanked President Han and legislators from across party lines for taking the time to meet with the delegation. He said that although his role had changed, his love for the Republic of China had never changed. Senior Fellow Hsu further pointed out that as the global situation changes rapidly, Taiwan is playing an increasingly important role in the global semiconductor supply chain and in strategic terms. The delegation, he said, understood and respected Taiwan’s legislative procedure. As the special defense budget bill was undergoing party caucus negotiation, this visit to Taiwan was particularly intended to convey U.S. concern for Taiwan’s security and to express that the U.S. will continue to promote cooperation with Taiwan.
共同團長「保衛民主基金會」蒙哥馬利(Mark Montgomery)資深主任肯定台灣的民主發展，並分享烏克蘭國防預算編列經驗，期盼立法院跨黨派委員能就國防預算審查凝聚共識，向國際社會展現台灣自我防衛的決心。
The co-head of the delegation, Mark Montgomery, a senior director at FDD, affirmed Taiwan’s democratic development and shared Ukraine’s experience in planning its national defense budget. He expressed hope that legislators from across party lines at the Legislative Yuan could reach a consensus on the deliberation of the national defense budget and demonstrate Taiwan’s determination to defend itself to the international community.
陳永康委員歡迎訪團蒞臨立法院，表示訪團此行充分展現美國智庫對台灣國防安全的重視，並強調支持提升國防預算，建議加強人員培訓、指揮系統與通訊韌性，亦樂於就軍購等議題進一步交流。
Legislator Chen welcomed the delegation to the Legislative Yuan. He said that the visit fully demonstrated the importance U.S. think tanks attach to Taiwan’s national defense and security. He emphasized his support for increasing the national defense budget and recommended strengthening personnel training, command systems, and communications resilience. He also said he would be pleased to further exchange views on arms procurement and other issues.
鍾佳濱委員表示高度關切與地緣政治有關之議題如東協、新能源、太空及無人載具等。鍾委員表示美方有科技研發能力，台灣有高端製造能力，相信雙方合作必定能建立穩定的非紅供應鏈，盼與訪團就此議題深入交流。
Legislator Chung expressed deep concern about issues related to geopolitics, such as ASEAN, new energy, space, and unmanned vehicles. He said that the U.S. has strengths in technological research and development, while Taiwan has advanced manufacturing capabilities. He believed that bilateral cooperation would certainly help establish a stable non-red supply chain and expressed hope for in-depth exchanges with the delegation on this issue.
王安祥委員說明民眾黨相對於國內兩大政黨，是相對年輕的政黨，民眾黨支持在國會合理監督及財政紀律的前提下，增加國防預算，並感謝美方長期對台灣的支持。
Legislator Wang stated that TPP is a relatively young party, compared with Taiwan’s two major political parties. TPP supports increasing the national defense budget on the premise of appropriate parliamentary oversight and fiscal discipline. He also thanked the U.S. for its long-standing support for Taiwan.
雙方隨後就美中元首峰會、國防相關議題及我國移民政策等議題，進行廣泛且深入的交流。此次拜會歷約50分鐘，氣氛熱絡友好。（2026/04/15）
Subsequently, the two sides held extensive and in-depth exchanges on the U.S.-China presidential summit, national defense issues, and Taiwan’s immigration policy. The meeting lasted approximately 50 minutes and concluded in a warm and cordial atmosphere. (2026/04/15)
