According to information published on the website Foreign Ministry of the island, Wu Zhaose phoned Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov on Tuesday and, on behalf of the people of Taiwan, expressed support for the people of Ukraine, and also announced that Taiwan would donate the indicated amount for the restoration of five Ukrainian cities.The West is preparing to betray Kyiv»In particular, two million dollars will be sent to Kharkiv and 500 thousand dollars each to Chernihiv, Nikolaev, Sumy and Zaporozhye,» the department's website says. «The people of Taiwan have long experienced military intimidation and other types of attacks from (mainland — ed.) China. Therefore, the authorities of Taiwan express their solidarity with the Ukrainian people and are ready to take an active part in the restoration of Ukraine,» he said Wu Zhaose, whose words are quoted on the website of the Foreign Ministry. It is not the first time that the head of the Taiwanese Foreign Ministry has called up the mayor of a Ukrainian city. At the end of April, Wu Zhaose phoned Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko and announced that Taiwan would allocate $8 million to Ukraine — three for the restoration of Kyiv, and the remaining five - six medical institutions in Ukraine. Official relations between the central government of the PRC and its island province were interrupted in 1949, after the Kuomintang forces led by Chiang Kai-shek, defeated in a civil war with the Communist Party of China, moved to Taiwan. Business and informal contacts between the island and mainland China resumed in the late 1980s. Since the early 1990s, the parties began to contact through non-governmental organizations — the Beijing Association for the Development of Relations across the Taiwan Strait and the Taipei Cross-Strait Exchange Foundation.
