巴拿馬國會在對中政策跨國議會聯盟(IPAC)積極推動下,昨(8)日成立「與台灣立法院跨黨派國會交流小組」,為兩國國會外交與國會交流建立專屬平台。外交部發言人蕭光偉指出,共有45名巴拿馬國會議員聯署加入,人數超過全體國會議員6成。據了解,友台小組人數更是友中小組的兩倍之多。

蕭光偉指出,巴拿馬國會友台小組於台北時間9月8日晚間11點(當地時間8日上午10點)在巴拿馬國會正式成立並舉行宣誓典禮,巴拿馬國會議長Shirley Castañedas、第一副議長暨IPAC共同主席 Manuel Cohen、第二副議長Manuel Cheng、外委會主席Joan Guevara、IPAC共同主席 Ronald Ameth De Gracia及國會友台小組主席Medin Jiménez等45名巴拿馬國會議員連署加入,友台小組成員人數超過全體國會議員6成。

涉外人士指出,巴拿馬國會友台小組45人超過全體國會議員6成,更是當地國會友中小組成員兩倍之多。

巴拿馬國會議員José Antonio Pérez Barboni透過IPAC表示,這是邁向民主的正確一步,也是巴拿馬與台灣的共同價值,標誌著雙方緊密經貿關係的開端,期盼未來能進一步推動外交關係。

巴拿馬國會議員Joan Manuel Guevara也說,成立這個國會小組證明,即使在欠缺正式外交關係的情況下,尤其是雙方均為捍衛主權、抵抗外部壓力的友好國會,國會外交同樣可以推行。

外交部長林佳龍也於「與台灣立法院跨黨派國會交流小組」以錄影致詞表示,台灣與巴拿馬共享民主、自由及尊重人權等普世價值,期盼透過友台小組進一步深化國會外交及拓展多元合作交流,促進兩國人民福祉,共創互惠共榮。

過去半年多來,已有20餘位巴國國會議員陸續訪台。林佳龍表示,鼓勵並促請巴拿馬國會友我議員凝聚共識推動籌組友台小組,巴國國會友台小組終順利成立,對重啟台巴兩國交流極具歷史意義。

蕭光偉表示,感謝巴拿馬各界友我力量的堅定支持,將持續與巴拿馬國會及友台小組保持密切合作,積極推動國會外交,深化台巴夥伴關係。
