"[We] will not yield an inch of ground in Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu to firmly defend our homeland," Lai said during an address in which he referred to the islands controlled by Taipei.
"The Battle of Guningtou lets us understand that democracy and freedom should not be taken for granted, but require the joint efforts of generations to defend them," Lai said.
Lai emphasized that "any external forces" would not be allowed to change the future of the islands, reinforcing Taiwan's stance against potential threats.
The Battle of Guningtou "represents our determination to protect our country," Lai told veterans and family members, marking a significant event in Taiwan's history.
