ten steps back; one step forward

It isn't often there's something to cheer in the area of Taiwan's international relations, so let's give a quiet hip-hip-hooray to the U.S. Congress for resisting P.R.C. pressure to water down its support for Taiwan and the TRA.

When Beijing does not respond with biting sanctions on American companies, perhaps we will see some stiff upper lips from the Brits, firm backbones from the Germans, and ... ok, perhaps I'm getting carried away after just one piece of good news.
