Taiwán, la isla autogobernada de alta tecnología que se ha convertido en un punto álgido de la creciente rivalidad entre China y Occidente, ha entrado en un nuevo capítulo político. Lai Ching-te, también conocido como William Lai, fue investido presidente esta semana, sucediendo a Tsai Ing-wen, cuyo liderazgo firme y discreto en los últimos ocho años ha redefinido el acercamiento de Taipei a Pekín.
