In Washington, which is off-limits to her husband due to a lack of diplomatic ties and pressure from China, Wu also met with senior US government officials, among them Undersecretary for International Security Affairs John Bolton, a noted supporter of Taiwan.
Deputy Secretary General to the President Joseph Wu (吳釗燮), who accompanied Wu on her visit, said during yesterday's news conference that Wu not only completed all the designated goals of her trip -- including increasing Taiwan's international visibility and publicizing Taiwan's democratic achievements and contribution to the global anti-terrorism campaign -- but she also successfully delivered Taiwan's goodwill to US friends, which obviously had upgraded the relations between two countries.
