Taiwan President Lai Ching-te is planning to stop in Hawaii and maybe Guam on a visit to Taipei's diplomatic allies in the Pacific in the coming weeks, sources told Reuters, a sensitive trip coming shortly after the U.

Tsai last month visited the Czech Republic, France and Belgium in a sensitive trip due to concerns about Chinese espionage and harassment. President William Lai (賴清德) fully supported her European visit, calling her the “best spokesperson” for the nation on the international stage.

Former Taiwanese leader Tsai Ing-wen reportedly expected to address a security forum in Canada, after three-nation European trip last month.

Former Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen is planning to visit Canada next week, two diplomatic sources told Reuters, in a highly watched visit for a senior Taiwan politician who has become a symbol of the island's defiance against China's military threat.
