Taiwans demokratiske sejr: Hvem er Lai Ching-te?

Island Kina - Lai Ching-te - præsidentvalg - Taiwan - Island

Læs om Taiwan's historiske valg og den nye præsident, der står over for Kina.

Taiwanesisk vicepræsident Lai Ching-te har sejret i en spændende trevejskamp og erklæret vinder af præsidentvalget med 40% af stemmerne. Den nye præsident er blevet kaldt en 'besværskaber' af Beijing på grund af sin pro-soværenitets holdning. Eksperter diskuterer, hvad en Lai-præsidentskab vil betyde for Taiwans udenrigspolitik og hvordan Kina sandsynligvis vil reagere. Valgresultatet vil afgøre relationerne med Kina de næste fire år, mens verden følger nøje med. Lai Ching-te har lovet at beskytte Taiwans de facto uafhængighed fra Kina og knytte øen tættere til andre internationale alliancer, herunder US's hårdere linje mod Kina.
