史瓦帝尼認為排除台灣違反聯合國憲章
史瓦帝尼總理戴克禮敦促聯合國考慮讓台灣有意義的參與，尤其是WHO、ICAO及UNFCCC，納入台灣，聯合國才有希望實現它的目標，平等顧及各會員國的利益。
自疫情以來，台灣持續向世界各國分享經驗與資源，與聯合國會員國一起實現聯合國大會主題，將台灣排除在聯合國這個理應服務全球公民的體系之外，並歧視台灣人民，嚴重違反聯合國憲章不可撼動的原則。
台灣的夥伴價值，值得聯合國重視。

Thanks to #Eswatini Prime Minister Cleopas Dlamini for his words backing #Taiwan's meaningful participation in UN systems at #UNGA76:
"The persistent exclusion of the Republic of China (Taiwan) from the United Nations and the discrimination of its citizens in a system meant to serve international citizens, is a gross violation of the unshakeable principles of the UN Charter. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Taiwan, in solidarity with UN Member States, made a significant contribution in realizing the theme of this year's session.
Eswatini would again this year continue to urge the United Nations to consider the meaningful participation of Taiwan, especially in the World Health Organisation, the International Civil Aviation Authority and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. With this inclusion of Taiwan, it is our hope that the UN will be living up to its objectives and equally serving the interests of all its member states.
The path to 2030 on the attainment of the UN SDGs was dented as a result of the pandemic, and Taiwan, adhering to the principle of leaving no one behind, shared its disease prevention expertise and experience with more than 80 countries and further assisted 40 countries make headway in ICT, agriculture, education and health.
Furthermore this year, in demonstrating that 'Taiwan Can Help, and Taiwan is Helping', Taiwan continued to send medical assistance, in the form of medical specialists and protective equipment for Eswatini’s health sector. It is in this light that we call upon for the recognition of Taiwan's efforts for the global well-being.
Lastly, the Kingdom of Eswatini can attest to the fact that Taiwan is an indispensable partner and would, if given an opportunity, play a meaningful role in the global body."
Taiwan's vision of global partnership can serve as a valuable reference for the UN.
#PartnershipForTheGoals
The decision marks another setback for Dr. Stephen Thaler.
英國爆發恐慌搶油潮，一些加油站燃料耗盡不得不關閉，還在營業的加油站外大排長龍。業者強調不是缺油，而是缺乏大型貨車司機導致運油供應鏈出問題，呼籲民眾拜託不要再囤積汽油了。英國政府週六宣佈將發放數千份緊急簽證給國外的卡車司機，但英國零售商協會表示已「太少、太晚」。

美國、英國和澳洲宣佈新安全協議 AUKUS，雖然未談及中國，但各方普遍認為此合作的目的就是為了對抗中國的影響力。英美兩國將協助澳洲發展核動力潛艇，但也導致澳洲取消了原與法國簽訂的潛艇合約，引發法國暴怒。週五，法國前所未有的召回了其駐美與駐澳的大使表示強烈抗議。
