American Institute in Taiwan Director William Stanton said yesterday US policy toward China was shaped by idealism and that the US will not walk away from Taiwan.

“From a Machiavellian point of view, the easy thing would be to just not sell arms to Taiwan any more, simple, but we go on doing that,” Stanton said at a Taipei Salon lecture hosted by the Lung Yingtai Cultural Foundation.

As households nationwide gathered yesterday to celebrate Father’s Day, five-year-old Chen Chieh-hsin (陳潔歆), the granddaughter of former president Chen Shui-bian (陳水扁), expressed her hope for a family reunion in a hand-written card.

“Dear Grandpa, this is my first time to write you a card. Are you happy? People often told me how much I resemble you, but when can you finally come home for a family reunion?” Chen Chieh-hsin wrote in a card delivered to her grandfather during a visit to Taipei Prison on the eve of Father’s Day.
