副總統蕭美琴訪問義大利,並前往文托泰內島(Ventotene)出席第二屆「文托泰內民主與自由會議」。對此,歐洲議會副議長皮齊耶諾(Pina Picierno)強調北京無權干預,民進黨團書記長范雲今(11)日也表示,「台灣不會因為有惡鄰,就不出門交朋友」。

范雲今早上在立法院接受媒體聯訪指出,民進黨團一再堅持,台灣不會因為有惡鄰,就不出門交朋友,很高興民主世界也不會因為恐嚇,就不邀請能貢獻民主對話的國際參與者。蕭美琴副總統這次的突破非常好,讓台灣能對自由世界做出更多貢獻。

范雲特別提到,這次「文托泰內民主與自由會議」在義大利「文托泰內島」舉行富有意義,文托泰內島過去曾關押對抗法西斯主義的知識分子,代表的是守護自由跟民主的精神。

范雲說,除蕭美琴副總統,過去曾來台灣參訪的諾貝爾和平獎得主、烏克蘭人權律師馬特維丘克(Oleksandra Matviichuk)也受邀出席會議,代表台灣在守護自由民主的國際地位,非常被重視與肯定。
