Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.
Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened up 93-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 37,971
on turnover of 12.9-billion N-T.
The market closed at another new high on Wednesday as buying in the
electronics sector continued amid strong global demand.
Analysts say the local main board kept moving higher, led by tech stocks on
the back of continuing strong global demand for A-I applications resilient to
geopolitical unease.
LY committee slams China after Lai forced to cancel Eswatini visit
The Legislative Foreign Affairs and National Defense Committee has passed a
resolution condemning Beijing for allegedly coercing three African countries
into revoking overflight permits for President Lai Ching-te's planned trip to
Eswatini, forcing the trips cancellation.
The motion denouncing Beijing's "coercion" of third countries to revoke
(撤銷) overflight permits for Taiwan's head of state was introduced to the
committee by D-P-P lawmakers
The proposal received cross-party backing and passed without objection.
According to D-P-P lawmaker Puma Shen, China used economic leverage to force
other countries to revoke flight permits in direct interference in matters of
national sovereignty.
Economics minister touts Taiwan now sourcing 60% of crude oil from US
Economics Minister Kung Ming-hsin says the government has significantly
increased its reliance on the U-S for crude oil imports -- which now account
for about 60-per cent of total supply.
The move marks a sharp rise from previous levels.
According 2024 data, about 30-per cent of Taiwan's crude oil imports
previously came from the U-S, with most of the remainder sourced from the
Middle East.
Speaking at a legislative committee heairng, Kung said C-P-C and Formosa
Petrochemical have both adjusted shipping routes, with most cargoes now
avoiding the Persian Gulf and instead transiting through the Red Sea and
other export channels.
The economics minister went on to stress that Taiwan currently maintains
(維持) crude oil reserves equivalent to about 140 days of consumption.
EU envoys agree on Ukraine loan
European Union ambassadors have agreed on a loan (借款) for Ukraine worth
more than 100 billion dollars.

through a pipeline connecting Hungary and Slovakia.
William Denselow reports from Brussels.
Canada PM Defends Policy on US Trade
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says that Washington cannot dictate
(決定,規定) the terms of the continental trade deal known as USMCA.
He spoke to reporters on Wednesday in Ottawa and acknowledged (承認) the
challenges ahead of the agreement's review in July.
The deal has linked the North American economies since the 1990s but faces
issues due to the Trump administration's tariff policies.
Carney stresses the need for negotiations to address trade irritants
(刺激物).
He responded to reports of U.S. demands for concessions, highlighting
Canada's strengths and diversification efforts.
Carney also defended Canada's trade policies, including protecting dairy and
opposing the "Buy Canadian" policy criticism.
