台灣與歐洲理念相近國家間的民主夥伴關係日益堅固，作為東亞的民主燈塔和世界上最大的民主集團，雙方致力於維護人權、民主和法治。近年來，歐盟及其成員國越來越重視與台灣的交流，許多國家將台灣視為可靠的合作夥伴，並以具體行動支持台灣。
中東歐國家與台灣有著特殊的情感連結，雙方都有抵抗威權主義的歷史背景。面對當前迅速擴張的假訊息資訊戰和經濟脅迫戰，中東歐國家加強了與台灣的合作，使台歐關係成為價值外交的重要案例。這些共同價值和經歷使我們更加珍惜得來不易的自由。
今年六月適逢歐洲議會大選，近年來歐洲議會推出多項友台法案，許多重量級議員訪台並公開支持台灣的國際參與，顯示出台歐關係的顯著進展。此次座談將探討國會外交如何成為增進台歐交流的重要管道，並討論民主夥伴間如何攜手對抗威權主義的擴張。
同時，台歐非正式但實質的關係也在公共外交、文化交流、數位韌性和安全合作等領域穩健發展。讓我們透過此次論壇，加深彼此了解，深化台歐關係，尋找新的合作契機，共同促進民主、人權和自由的實踐。

As the largest democratic bloc, the EU has recently deepened its engagement with Taiwan, recognizing it as a beacon of democracy in East Asia and a reliable partner committed to democracy, human rights, and the rule of law. This strengthens democratic partnerships between Taiwan and Europe in the face of global challenges. Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries, with their histories of resisting authoritarian rule, have strengthened cooperation with Taiwan against threats like disinformation and economic coercion, making the Taiwan-Europe relationship a valuable example of values-based diplomacy.
With the recent European Parliament elections, the importance of parliamentary diplomacy in strengthening Taiwan-Europe ties is evident. The European Parliament's pro-Taiwan resolutions, visits by European parliamentarians to Taiwan, and European countries passing bills supporting Taiwan's international participation all demonstrate significant progress in Taiwan-Europe relations.
Beyond formal ties, a vibrant partnership is blossoming through public diplomacy, cultural collaboration, digital resilience, and security cooperation. To explore its potential further, we have assembled a distinguished panel to discuss strategies to solidify the Taiwan-Europe partnership and unlock new avenues for collaboration. Join us in fostering understanding and building a stronger future for Taiwan and its European partners!
