Taiwan's Foreign Ministry: US outreach stays bipartisan after Democrats' midterm win

Nov 04, 2026

Taiwan's government says it will keep working with both US parties after Democrats swept the midterm elections, framing it as a neutral, business-as-usual stance rather than a political shift.

  • Major US outlets project Democrats won a decisive majority in both the House and Senate.
  • Taiwan's Foreign Ministry says it is watching the results closely but insists its US outreach has always been non-partisan and reaches out to both sides.
  • The ministry points to long-standing support from both parties in Congress and from the executive branch as the basis for continuing cooperation.
  • Taiwan plans to keep deepening ties with Washington on security, trade, tech, and education regardless of which party holds power.

Outlook: Expect Taiwan to lean on its cross-party relationships in Congress to keep US support steady as the new Democratic majority takes shape.
