1/ At Before 2027: A Memorandum to Taiwan from Georgia and the Czech Republic, speakers emphasized that authoritarian influence rarely comes from one direction — and requires constant questioning of power, narratives, and intent.
4/Taiwanese legislator, @pumashen, translated these experiences for Taiwan and highlighted the value of comparing lessons across countries through dialogue and projects like the China Index.

4/4 As @thecfhk's @frances_hui warns, time is running out.
Defending journalism, democracy, and free speech must come with real consequences for repression.
#FreeJimmyLai
DTL stands with @thecfhk in urging @POTUS & Congress to act on #JimmyLai’s case. At 78, the pro-democracy activist remains imprisoned for defending freedom. As Hong Kongers continue to unjustly suffer under the NSL, international pressure has never been more crucial.
1/4 More than 50 global rights organizations have joined @thecfhk in urging President Trump (@POTUS) and Congress to act promptly to secure the release of #HongKong publisher #JimmyLai, following his December conviction under Beijing’s National Security Law...

Great analysis by @yangjianli001 that aligns with a pattern we’ve documented in the China Index: deeper PRC exposure often comes with alignment on Beijing’s positions, including the One China Principle. 70% of measured countries support it.

Why is Xiaohongshu being banned in Taiwan? As @doublethinklab researcher Eric Hsu explains, the issues stem from the Chinese platform's lack of a communication channel with Taiwan's government.
Timely interview with our CEO @TTCATz amid Japan–PRC tensions. He breaks down what the #ChinaIndex reveals about PRC influence in East Asia and its attempts to shape how people see events and history to influence outcomes without force.
