Deputy Minister François Chih-chung Wu spoke about Taiwan’s smart medical care project at hospitals in Ukraine’s Lviv City via videoconference Aug. 25 in Taipei City.
 
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a pact by the Taiwan International Cooperation and Development Fund (TaiwanICDF), the Lviv City Government, the First Medical Union of Lviv and the Unbroken Charitable Foundation to implement smart medical care was concluded.
 
Wu said Taiwan leverages its smart medicine and health sector to promote the Diplomatic Allies Prosperity Project with partners who hold democratic values for mutual benefits.
 
The Taiwan government has supported Ukraine since the Russian invasion of 2022, the deputy minister said. He cited the recently renovated rehabilitation building at the UNBROKEN Ecosystem in Lviv named the Taiwan Friendship Building to underscore the friendship.
 
Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadovyi thanked the government for its long-standing assistance and said the project coincided with the 35th anniversary of Ukrainian independence. While Ukraine has paid with many lives for Russia’s invasion, it still firmly believes in the values of independence and freedom, he said, adding that the friendship of Taiwan is sincerely appreciated.
 
Taiwan ICDF Secretary-general Huang Yu-lin said Ukraine has demonstrated exceptional courage and resilience. Taiwan understands the importance of resilience to tackle crisis, adapt to changes, facilitate reconstruction and create potentials, he added.
 
Huang said the project, the first of its kind implemented by the TaiwanICDF commissioned by the MOFA in Europe, will provide smart medical solutions through hardware and software integration, educational training and personnel cultivation.
 
According to the MOFA, the project enhances function of emergency wards and intensive care units at the city’s St. Panteleimon hospital and St. Nicholas children’s hospital. (SFC-E)
