French businesses should wake up to risks linked to tensions around Taiwan that could impact their interests, the island’s envoy to Paris warned, urging firms to promote more collaboration with Taipei.

“If you look at the example of Russia and the Ukraine war, having important interests in Russia doesn’t mean that you can split the two and abandon Ukraine to protect interests in Russia, no,” Francois Wu said in an interview with Bloomberg on Friday. “If there were to be a war, their interests in China would be threatened.”
