In this episode, RAIA(ffairs) spoke with Beatriz Ledo Tonin to discuss the Kaitasi Treaty signed in late 2025 between Tuvalu’s Prime Minister, Feleti Teo and Taiwan's President Lai Ching-te. The discussion examines Taiwan’s shrinking diplomatic space, China’s influence in the Pacific, and the existential question of what happens to a state when climate change threatens its physical territory.
