What the petition asks

Establish a security arrangement which will safeguard against foreign threats, intimidation and/or invasion.
Establish a security arrangement which will safeguard against foreign threats, intimidation and/or invasion.
In an increasingly uncertain and multilateral world, the United Kingdom should play a key role in securing the free world/democracies from authoritarian governments.
Taiwan is among the largest economies of the world, has a representative democracy, and is vulnerable to nearby enemies who have publically announced their willingness to overthrow the Taiwanese government.
It is in a very precarious situation, we should do everything within our power to support and become closer with an ally.
