This set the tone for her visit. Wu said that to exclude democratic Taiwan, which does all it can to fulfill its international obligations, from the United Nations, is unfair. Taiwan's people have freedom, but as a country Taiwan does not have the freedom to participate in international organizations or to associate with other democratic countries.
她說，將民主及善盡國際義務的台灣排除在聯合國之外，是不公平的；台灣人民雖有自由，但是作為國家，卻沒有參與國際組織以及和其他民主國家交往的自由。
