Former Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen “has actually really been trying to form a democratic coalition around the world. . . . a collective of like-minded countries rather than a formal name like NATO,” says Linda Robinson, CFR expert and author of “Women in Power: Fighting for Democracy in an Age of Authoritarianism.” Robinson joined James M. Lindsay on the President’s Inbox podcast to discuss why authoritarian regimes seek to diminish women’s rights.
