Four US lawmakers arrived in Taiwan yesterday to meet with President Tsai Ing-wen （蔡英文） and other senior officials, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.

The lawmakers arrived in two groups and are to stay in Taiwan for three days.

One of the groups is led by US Representative Brad Wenstrup, a Republican, who is accompanied by three of his aides, the ministry said in a statement.

Wenstrup is a member of the Defense Intelligence and Warfighter Support Subcommittee of the US House of Representatives’ Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

The other group is led by US Representative Seth Moulton, a Democrat. He is accompanied by US representatives Michael Waltz, a Republican, and Kai Kahele, a Democrat, as well as their three aides, the ministry said.

Department of North American Affairs Director-General Douglas Hsu （徐佑典） welcomed the delegations at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport upon their arrival.

The visiting lawmakers are also to meet with Minister of Foreign Affairs Joseph Wu （吳釗燮） and National Security Council Secretary-General Wellington Koo （顧立雄） to discuss Taiwan-US relations, regional peace and security, and trade, the ministry said.

All four US lawmakers have supported Taiwan in the US Congress by initiating bills and by writing joint letters to support Taiwan’s participation in the WHO and the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity.
