Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen was presented with the Hudson Institute's Global Leadership Award at an event in New York City.
The award is presented to "exceptional individuals who have demonstrated extraordinary leadership in service of the principles at the core of Hudson's mission," according to the Washington, DC-based think tank.
Hudson reportedly barred media from attending the event, in which she gave a speech. A summary of her remarks can be found here.
In 2020 she spoke at a virtual gala held by the Hudson Institute, which receives funding from the Taiwanese government.
